MULTIPLE CHOICE y

1. A patient comes to the emergency department and tells the triage nurse that he
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

y is “having a heart attack.” What is the nurse’s top priority at this time?
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

a. Determine the patient’s personal data and y y y y y

insurance coverage. y y

b. Ask the patient to take a seat in the waiting
y y y y y y y y y

room until his name is called.
y y y y y y

c. Request that a nurse collect data for a y y y y y y y

comprehensive history.
y y

d. Ask a nurse to start a focused assessment
y y y y y y y

of this patient now.
y y y y

ANS: D y

The nurse needs to begin an assessment as soon as possible that is focused on this patient’s
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

cardiovascular system. The type of health assessment performed by the nurse is also driven
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

by patient need. Personal data and insurance information will be obtained, but in this
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

situation, these data can wait until after the patient is assessed. Based also on Maslow’s
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

hierarchy of needs, physiologic needs take precedence. Rather than asking the patient to
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

wait, the nurse needs to begin data collection, such as vital signs, immediately to determine
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

the patient’s health status. Complications can be prevented if an immediate assessment is
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

made to analyze the patient’s symptoms. A comprehensive history is not indicated in this
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

situation at this time. Some subjective data will be collected, such as allergies and medical
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

history related to cardiovascular disease. Eyes, ears, or a complete musculoskeletal or
y y y y y y y y y y y y

mental health assessment is not a priority at this time.

2. Which situation illustrates a screening assessment?
y y y y y

a. A patient visits an obstetric clinic for the y y y y y y y

first time and the nurse conducts a detailed y y y y y y y y

history and physical examination. y y y y

b. A hospital sponsors a health fair at a local y y y y y y y y

mall and provides cholesterol and blood y y y y y

pressure checks to mall patrons. y y y y y

c. The nurse in an urgent care center checks y y y y y y y

the vital signs of a patient who is y y y y y y y

complaining of leg pain. y y y y

d. A ypatient ynewly ydiagnosed ywith ydiabetes
mellitus comes to test his fasting blood y y y y y y

glucose level.
y y

ANS: B y

A health fair at a local mall that provides cholesterol and blood pressure checks is an
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

example of a screening assessment focused on disease detection. A detailed history and
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

physical examination conducted during a first-time visit to an obstetric clinic is an example
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

of a comprehensive assessment. Assessing a patient complaining of leg pain in the triage
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

area of an urgent care center is an example of a problem-based/focused assessment. A
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

patient’s return appointment 1 month after today’s office visit to report fasting blood
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

glucose levels is an example of an episodic or follow-up assessment.

y y y y y y y

a. The person who had abdominal surgery y y y y y

yesterday y

b. The person who is unaware of his high y y y y y y y

c. The person who is being admitted to a y y y y y y y

d. The person who is beginning rehabilitation y y y y y

after a knee replacement y y y y

ANS: B y

A screening assessment is performed for the purpose of disease detection. In this case this
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

person may have diabetes mellitus. A shift assessment is most appropriate for the person
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y

who is recovering in the hospital from surgery. A comprehensive assessment is performed
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

during admission to a facility to obtain a detailed history and complete physical
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

examination. An episodic or follow-up assessment is performed after knee replacement to
y y y y y y y y y y y y

evaluate the outcome of the procedure.
