Des Jardins: Clinical Manifestations and Assessment of Respiratory Disease, 9th
Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The respiratory care practitioner is conducting a patient interview. The main purpose of this
interview is to:
a. review data with the patient.
b. gather subjective data from the patient.
c. gather objective data from the patient.
d. fill out the history form or checklist.
ANS: B
The interview is a meeting between the respiratory therapist and the patient. It allows the
collection of subjective data about the patient's feelings regarding his/her condition.
2. For there to be a successful interview, the respiratory therapist must:
a. provide leading questions to guide the patient.
b. reassure the patient.
c. be an active listener.
d. use medical terminology to show knowledge of the subject matter.
ANS: C
Listening is not a passive process. Listening is active and demanding. It requires the
practitioner's complete attention. If the examiner is preoccupied with personal needs or
concerns, he or she will invariably miss something important. Active listening is a cornerstone
to understanding.

a. Present health, patient history, and family history
b. Chief complaint and present health
c. Age, medications, present health, and family history
d. Age, chief complaint, present health, and family history

Age, chief complaint, present health, and family history are typically found on a health history
form because each can impact the patient’s health. Health insurance provider information,
while needed for billing purposes, would not be found on the history form.

interview include which of the following?
1. Minimize or prevent interruptions.
2. Ensure privacy during discussions.
