The nurse reviews client goals and outcomes to determine whether they have been met. If pain management outcomes are not achieved, what might the nurse and client consider? Standard Text: Select all that apply.
 
  1. Identify objective data.
  2. Change of medication dose or interval
  3. Did the client understate the pain?
  4. Is the client overstating the lack of relief?
  5. Has the client's physical condition changed?

Question 2

When measuring temperature on a client who comes to the clinic drinking coffee, the nurse would use what route?
 
  1. Oral
  2. Rectal
  3. Tympanic
  4. Axillary

Answer to Question 1

2,3,5
Rationale: The nurse identifies objective data during the evaluation of comfort, but this is not usually a consideration when outcomes are not achieved.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The best route for measuring temperature would be tympanic. Oral is contraindicated because the client is drinking hot coffee. Axillary would be less accurate than would tympanic. Rectal would be embarrassing for the client, and is not required in order to get an accurate temperature.
