purposeful/systematic and interpersonal/collaborative
What are the five steps of the nsg process:
ADPIE: assessment, dx, planning, implementation, evaluation
The nsg process is:
dynamic, requires creativity in its application, utilizes the same steps but may result differently w/each pt, designed for use in any care setting, involves overlapping steps
Collecting, organizing, clustering, identifying, documenting, and formulating goals are all included in what step of the nsg process:
assessment
To establish a database-allows for accessibility to all members of the health team, pt’s responses to health concerns or illnesses, pt’s ability to manage health care needs-and is continuous throughout all steps is the purpose of what step of the nsg process:
assessment
Data collection occurs in what 3 phases:
before you see the pt, when you see the pt, and after you see the pt
What are the 4 types of assessment:
initial, problem-focused, emergency, and time-lapsed
This type of assessment is the complete database for problem identification and is the baseline data for comparison:
initial assessment: admission assessment
This type of assessment determines the status of a specific problem:
problem-focused assessment: hourly I&Os
This type of assessment identifies life-threatening problems:
emergency assessment: airway assessment
This type of assessment compares pt’s current status to baseline data previously obtained:
Time-lapsed: reassessment
Data that’s apparent only to the person affected, that can be described only by the person affected (sensations, feelings, values, beliefs, attitudes, perceptions of personal health status) is defined as:
subjective data/covert data
Data that’s only detectable by an observer, that can be measured or tested against an accepted standard, can be seen, heard, felt, or smelled, and obtained physical examination is defined as:
objective data/overt
Primary data are sources from:
the pt only

physical examination
What are you doing to data when you identify nsg dx/problems, identify S/S of possible medical problems, setting priorities (ABCs, Maslow’s hierarchy), promoting critical thinking, and identifying pt’s strengths:
when clustering/organizing data of the ________ in the nsg process
To compare subjective & objective data (conflicting info), comparing to rule out unreliable sources, and to recheck abnormal findings (comparing findings to normal values) is to what with data?
validating data
What are the types of nsg assessment frameworks:
nsg model/framwork=Neuman Model; non-nursing models=body systems mode/Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs/and developmental theories
Timely reporting promotes:
expedited dx, TX of urgent problems, continuity of care, and accurate documentation
Timely reporting, continuity of care, accurate documentation occur when doing what with data:
reporting or recording data
