Answer to Question 1
D
Infants cannot verbally express their pain, but they do express pain with behavioral cues and physiological indicators. Infants can tolerate analgesics, but proper dosing and close monitoring are essential. Infants and older children have the same sensitivity to pain. Pain can be assessed even though the neonate cannot verbalize; the nurse can observe behavioral clues. Nurses use behavioral cues and physiological responses to assess pain in infants.
Answer to Question 2
D
In a source record, the patient's chart has a separate section for each discipline (e.g., nursing, medicine, social work, respiratory therapy) in which to record data. Graphic sheets and flow sheets are records of repeated observations and measurements such as vital signs, daily weights, and intake and output. In the problem-oriented medical record, the database section contains all available assessment information pertaining to the patient (e.g., history and physical examination, the nurse's admission history and ongoing assessment, the dietitian's assessment, laboratory reports, radiologic test results). In the source record, the medical history and examination contain results of the initial examination performed by the physician, including findings, family history, confirmed diagnoses, and medical plan of care. In the source record, the progress notes contain an ongoing record of the patient's progress and response to medical therapy and a review of the disease process; it often is interdisciplinary and includes documentation from health-related disciplines (e.g., health care providers, physical therapy, social work).
