During the nursing assessment phase, a comprehensive information base is developed through a physical examination, nursing history, medication history, and professional observation.

Determining the patients mental status is one part of the nursing assessment, but it is not the primary purpose. • ST DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: dm 36 OBJ: 1 | 3 TOP: Nursing Process Step: Assessment MSC: NCLEX Client Needs Category: Health Promotion and Maintenance What is the basis of the NANDA I taxonomy? Functional health patterns TE • • Human response patterns • Basic human needs • Pathophysiologic needs ANS: B The NANDA I taxonomy identifies human response patterns. Functional components of health patterns are limited to activity, fluid volume, nutrition, self care, and sensory perception. Basic human needs comprise less than merely health patterns. Pathophysiologic needs are not part of the scope of NANDA I. DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge REF: pp. 37-38 OBJ: 5 TOP: Nursing Process Step: Diagnosis MSC: NCLEX Client Needs Category: Physiological Integrity Which task is included in the assessment step of the nursing process? • Establishing patient goals/outcomes • Implementing the nursing care plan (NCP) • Measuring goal/outcome achievement • Collecting and communicating data BA N ANS: D K • Data are collected and communicated in the assessment phase of the nursing process.

The response patterns are unique to the patient and are not disease specific. Nursing diagnoses describe the patients human response pattern. DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension
