Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
In this scenario, pain management is the priority. In outcome identification, activities performed include establishing priorities.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
The first step is to look at the data for cues. Significant data or cues will then be clustered. During cue clustering, critical thinking is used to analyze and synthesize the cues; that is, how they fit into a particular problem. The cues are then put together to form meaningful clusters that describe specific client problems. Cluster interpretation involves synthesizing the cue clusters; that is, to see the whole picture and attach meaning to the cluster. Once the nursing diagnosis is selected, it should be validated with the client.
