Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Nursing classification systems such as NIC and NOC are designed to provide a standardized language for reporting and analyzing nursing care delivery that is individualized for each patient. Standardized terminology assists practitioners in the implementation of the five phases of the nursing process. Classification systems are not related to disease process and are not used for financial purposes. Classification systems include interventions for all health conditions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A nursing assessment is done to identify the patient's response to health problems. During the nursing assessment phase, a comprehensive information base is developed through a physical examination, nursing history, medication history, and professional observation. Identifying underlying pathologic conditions and assisting the physician in identifying medical conditions is not part of the nursing process. Determining the patient's mental status is one part of the nursing assessment, but it is not the primary purpose.
