If you're patient hasn't finished his/her drink and you're done with implementation, do you have to count it as input?
Do we assess level of pain before and after wound care?
What's a good assessment measure for impaired comfort? assess patient's level of comfort by asking if he/she is uncomfortable. Or does it need to be more specific? If so, how?
Patient complaining of pain after lightly palpating first quadrant, you stop..have patient medicated. When you go to reassess, patient stil in pain, what do you do? invoke CDM? How would you document that?
For pvna, edema isn’t a critical element but if it's there it goes under 'other' right?
Do I count what the patient drank just before I get in the room..if the tray is there and he is not done with it? ex. drank some coffee, still eating, drank some juice while I'm in the room?
For neurological assessment- children 1-3 years of age, I know we must assess verbal, visual and tactile stimuli but for under one are we just checking fontanel?
I'm taking a Blood pressure and then want to write my results down, do I have to gel before touching my pen?
If assigned to give infant a bottle, would I just document amount under enteral intake and under enteral feeding (kind of feeding & amount of feeding) on pcs form?
Let's say patient has no fluids running but has IVAD maintenance with 3 ml's flush. When would you check site? I know you check it right before flushing, but does it have to be during 20 minute check or anytime during PCS? If you do have to check site during 20 minutes, can you leave flush for later?
