Question: 1 of 20
CORRECT
Time Remaining: 16:38:39

A nurse is preparing to auscultate a client's heart. Which of the following positions is best for
detecting a low-pitched diastolic murmur?
To answer this item, start by critically reading the stem and reviewing the
scenario, as well as identifying the person of focus, key words, and what the
question is asking. Also, you should have determined if the question was
positively worded, negatively worded, or if it involves priority setting.
Scenario: A nurse is preparing to auscultate a client’s heart.
Question: Which of the following positions is best for detecting a low-pitched
diastolic murmur?
Person of Focus: The nurse who is preparing to auscultate the client’s heart
Key Words: auscultate, heart, positions, best, low-pitched diastolic murmur
So, the question is asking the best position for detecting a low-pitched
murmur. This is a graphic option item, which is similar to traditional multiple
choice items except images are used in the options instead of text. The key
,word “best” in the question indicates this is a priority setting item, which
means all four options are correct, but one is better than the others. In this
item, all four positions can be used to auscultate the heart, but one position
is the best for detecting low-pitched murmurs.
Next you should review each option and determine which position is the
best.
This is the incorrect position. This image represents the sitting position,
which is appropriate for determining cardiac function at the various
anatomical sites. While it can be possible to detect a low-pitched murmur in
this position, there is another position that is best for detecting the presence
of a low-pitched diastolic murmur.
If you missed this item, your remediation should include an overview of
cardiac examination techniques.
