    • He is retired after working 40 years at a local auto plant

    • A history of COPD and uses home O2 at 2L NC

    • Mr. Jones had an appendectomy 30 years ago

    • His current ordered diet is low sodium

    Correct Answer
    A. A history of COPD and uses home O2 at 2L NC
    Explanation
    The background information provided includes various details about Mr. Jones, such as his history of COPD and his use of home oxygen at 2L NC. This information is important for the physician to know as it suggests that Mr. Jones has a chronic respiratory condition and requires supplemental oxygen therapy. This information can help guide the physician's decision-making and treatment plan for Mr. Jones. Additionally, it is relevant to mention that the other details provided, such as his work history, previous appendectomy, and current diet, are not as directly related to his current medical condition and may not have as much impact on the physician's decision-making process.

    • Organizing patient information to report in a concise manner

    • Delivering patient information without needing to assess

    Correct Answer
    A. Organizing patient information to report in a concise manner
    Explanation
    The SBAR tool is useful for organizing patient information to report in a concise manner. This tool helps healthcare professionals structure their communication by providing a framework for presenting information about a patient's situation, background, assessment, and recommendation. By using the SBAR tool, healthcare providers can effectively convey essential information to other team members, ensuring clear and efficient communication. This helps to prevent miscommunication, improve patient safety, and enhance the overall quality of care.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    You have assessed Mr. Jones in room 4802 and found that he is complaining of shortness of breath. He has a history of COPD and wears home O2 at 2L NC.  His SPo2 is 88% on 6L Nasal Cannula and Respiratory Rate is 32. His wife was with him all day and left an hour ago.  He had a good day with no reports of dyspnea.  Physical Therapy walked with him today and he ambulated independently on 2L NC.  When using the SBAR Tool, the assessment would include

    • Mr. Jones walked today independently on 2L NC

    • Mrs. Jones spent the day with Mr. Jones and just left an hour ago

    • Mr. Jones is in room 4802 and is complaining of dyspnea

    • Mr. Jones has a respiratory rate of 32 and his SPo2 is 88% on 6L NC

    Correct Answer
    A. Mr. Jones has a respiratory rate of 32 and his SPo2 is 88% on 6L NC
    Explanation
    The assessment includes Mr. Jones' respiratory rate and SPo2 levels, which are important indicators of his breathing and oxygenation status. These findings suggest that he may be experiencing respiratory distress due to his COPD. The information about his wife being with him all day and leaving recently may be relevant in understanding his current condition and any changes that may have occurred. The fact that Mr. Jones was able to walk independently on 2L NC earlier in the day indicates his functional ability, which is also important to consider in his overall assessment.
