Question 8

A nurse is precepting a newly licensed nurse while he is charting. Use of which of the following abbreviations indicates a need for further teaching?

Answer

In this item, you need knowledge of abbreviations that the Joint Commission has determined should not be used in documentation. This is a negatively-worded item that asks you to select the option that indicates the newly licensed nurse needs additional teaching. You will learn more about negatively-worded items in Module 4. This item requires foundational thinking because you only need to recall knowledge related to the abbreviations that are not acceptable for use when charting. To reduce the occurrence of medical errors, the Joint Commission developed a list of do-not-use abbreviations that should be avoided in health care settings. The abbreviation “q.d.” was previously used to indicate every day, which can be mistaken as the abbreviation for “four times daily (qid),” resulting in medical errors. The Joint Commission has recommended the use of “daily” to indicate every day. This is not an acceptable abbreviation; therefore, additional teaching is needed.
