, 4. When listening to a patient’s breath sounds, the nurse is unsure of a sound that
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


ad isheard.Which action would the nurse take next?
da ad ad ad ad ad ad


a. Notify the patient’s physician. ad ad ad


b. Document the sound exactly as it was heard. ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


c. Validate the data by asking another nurse to listen to the breath sounds.
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


d. Assess again in 20 minutes to note whether the sound is still present.

validatesthe data to ensure accuracy by either repeating the assessment themselves or
ad da ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad

5. The nurse is conducting a class for new graduate nurses. While teaching the class, what
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


wouldthe nurse keep in mind regarding what novice nurses, without a background of
ad da ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


skills and experience from which to draw upon, are more likely to base their decisions
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


on?
ad


a. Intuition
b. A set of rules ad ad ad


c. Articles in journals ad ad


d. Advice from supervisors ad ad




ANS: B ad


Novice nurses operate from a set of defined, structured rules to make decisions. It takes
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


time, perhaps a few years, in similar clinical situations to achieve competency and it is
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


functioning at the level of an expert practitioner when intuition is included in making
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


clinical decisions. While information in journal articles and advice from supervisors may
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


assist in making decisions, novice nurses do not typically base their decisions on them.
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


It would also be important that if information from journal articles and advice from
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


supervisors were used, thatthey were evidence based.

6. The nurse is reviewing information about evidence-based practice (EBP). Which
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


statementbest reflects EBP?
ad da ad ad


a. EBP relies on tradition for support of best practices.
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


b. EBP is simply the use of best practice techniques for the treatment of patients.
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


c. EBP emphasizes the use of best evidence with the clinician’s experience.
ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad ad


d. EBP does not consider the patient’s own preferences as important.
