What type of database is most appropriate when the rapid
collection of data is required and often compiled
concurrently with lifesaving measures?
a. Complete
b. Focused
c. Follow-up
d. Emergency - Answer-d. Emergency
An emergency database includes the rapid collection of
data often obtained concurrently with lifesaving measures.
A focused database is for a limited or short-term problem;
this database concerns mainly one problem, one cue
complex, or one body system. A follow-up database is
used to follow up on short-term or chronic health
problems; the statuses of identified problems are
evaluated at regular and appropriate intervals. A complete
database includes a complete health history and a full
physical examination; it describes the current and past

health state and forms a baseline against which all future
changes can be measured.
A nurse precepting a student nurse asks, "What's the most

d. Prioritizing health concerns - Answer-c. Using evidence-
based assessment techniques
Evidence-based techniques are supported by research
showing effectiveness of the technique that provides the
safest and most current techniques to promote the health
of patients. Clustering subjective and objective data is a
step in the critical-thinking process, but is not the most
important step. Analyzing health data is a step in the
critical-thinking process, but is not the most important
step. Prioritizing health concerns is a step in the critical-
thinking process, but is not the most important step.

c. Heart rate of 76 bpm
d. Bruising on lower leg - Answer-b. Pain rated at 7 out of
10
Subjective data is what the patient says about himself or
herself during history taking. Objective data is what the
health professional observes by inspecting, percussing,
palpating, and auscultating during the physical
examination. Blood glucose is measured by using a drop
of blood placed on a test strip in a glucometer. Bruising is
assessed by inspection. Heart rate is assessed by
palpation of the radial artery or auscultated with a
stethoscope when listening to heart sounds.
