Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 4

Rationale 1: Herbal products and dietary supplements should be assessed for a pharmacology assessment.
Rationale 2: Allergies to medications should be assessed for a pharmacology assessment.
Rationale 3: Heart and lung assessment is incorrect because this is part of a physical assessment, not a pharmacology assessment.
Rationale 4: All current medications, including OTC medications, should be assessed for a pharmacology assessment.
Rationale 5: An integumentary assessment is incorrect because this is part of a physical assessment, not a pharmacology assessment.

Global Rationale: Herbal products and dietary supplements, an allergy assessment, and all current prescribed and OTC medications should be assessed for a pharmacology assessment. A heart, lung, and integumentary assessment are physical assessment not pharmacology assessments.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

Rationale 1: Palpable pulses in all extremities is objective data that is collected by the nurse.
Rationale 2: Current vital signs are objective data that are collected by the nurse.
Rationale 3: Chest x-ray is objective data because it is not reported by the client, and the results can be viewed by the nurse and physician.
Rationale 4: Nausea is subjective data reported by the client.

Global Rationale: Nausea is subjective data reported by the client. Palpable pulses in all extremities, current vital signs, and chest x-ray are all examples of objective data that is collected by the nurse.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
