Quiz zum Vortrag
A nurse is caring for an older adult patient who has been experiencing increased difficulty with activities of daily living following a hip fracture. When using the clinical judgment measurement model (CJMM) rather than the nursing process to guide care, what is the primary difference in the nurse's approach?
- The nurse follows a strict five-step sequence of assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation.
- The nurse focuses on recognizing cues and analyzing functional data to form clinical judgments rather than following a linear care planning process.
- The nurse delegates functional assessments to physical therapy since the CJMM does not include assessment as a step.
- The nurse documents ADL deficits using standardized language required by the nursing process framework.
- The nurse uses the CJMM only during the initial admission assessment, then switches to the nursing process for ongoing care.
A nurse is preparing to assess a patient's functional ability on admission to a rehabilitation unit. Which of the following are validated tools used to measure functional ability? Select all that apply.
- Barthel Index
- Glasgow Coma Scale
- Functional Independence Measure (FIM)
- Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living
- Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)
A patient completes occupational therapy and is reassessed using the Barthel Index. Their score improved from 40 to 75 out of 100 over two weeks. How should the nurse interpret this change when evaluating outcomes?
- The score improvement is clinically insignificant because the patient has not reached 100.
- The patient has shown meaningful functional improvement and is likely approaching independence in basic ADLs.
- A Barthel Index score of 75 indicates the patient is ready for discharge to home without support.
- The nurse should discard the Barthel Index and use a different tool since the patient did not reach baseline.
- The score change reflects cognitive improvement rather than functional improvement.
