One of the factors identified by Polimeni and Moore (2002)which is closely connected to satisfaction with the hospital experience is

Accepted Answer

According to Polimeni and Moore (2002), patients' sense of control is closely connected to their satisfaction with the hospital experience. When patients feel that they have a sense of control over their healthcare experience, they are more likely to have positive feelings about the care they receive. This can include feeling informed about their treatment options, having their opinions and preferences taken into account, and feeling comfortable expressing concerns and questions to their healthcare providers.

Reactance refers to a kind of psychological response to perceived threats to one's freedom and autonomy. Patients who are labeled as "bad" may exhibit behaviors that involve a strong desire to resist the treatment or advice that is being offered to them. This may manifest as noncompliance, argumentativeness, or a general reluctance to follow the rules. These behaviors can be seen as a form of reactance because they are driven by a need to assert control and resist being told what to do.

Question 6

When possible,physicians should provide the amount of information that would match the coping style of the patient.In other words,_____________ should receive little information and _______________ should receive as much information as possible.

Accepted Answer

According to research, patients have different coping styles when it comes to medical information. Blunters prefer to avoid or limit information, whereas monitors prefer to receive as much information as possible. Therefore, physicians should provide little information to blunters and as much information as possible to monitors. Delegators prefer to hand over decision-making to their physicians, while activists prefer to be actively involved in the decision-making process. Therefore, they are not relevant to the question.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

The device that allows practitioners to set the time period between allowable dosages in patient-controlled analgesia is known as the lock-out interval. This is the duration of time that must pass before the patient can administer another dose of pain medication through the device. A monitor interval, reactance interval, therapeutic ritual and physician interval are not commonly used terms in relation to patient-controlled analgesia.

According to Goffman (1961), a total institution is a place where individuals are isolated from society and are subject to strict control of their behavior and daily activities. In a hospital setting, this could refer to psychiatric hospitals or other institutions where patients are completely dependent on the hospital and its staff to meet their daily needs. This type of hospital takes control of the patient's life and removes them from society.

Accepted Answer

The "uniformity myth" refers to the mistaken belief that all patients should receive the same information in the same way, ignoring individual differences in needs, preferences, and capacities for understanding health information. This concept critiques the one-size-fits-all approach to patient education and communication.

Question 14

The need for ______________ is closely related to the patient's sense of control in that it affects perception of the values of the information received.

Accepted Answer

The need for information is closely related to the patient's sense of control because it allows them to make informed decisions about their care and treatment. Additionally, the value of the information received is dependent on the patient's perception of it, which can be influenced by factors such as the amount and quality of the information provided, as well as the patient's own beliefs and values.

Question 15

An important early step in emergency medicine which determines the priority in which patients are treated is called

Accepted Answer

Triage is the process of sorting patients based on the severity of their condition and the likelihood of their survival, in order to determine the order in which they should be treated. It is a critical early step in emergency medicine. Option A, hospital separation, is not a term commonly used in emergency medicine. Option B, continuity of care, refers to the seamless and coordinated delivery of healthcare services over time and is not directly relevant to determining treatment priority in emergency situations. Options D and E, patient-centered and disease-centered approach are philosophies of healthcare delivery that focus on meeting the needs of the individual patient or treating a specific disease, respectively, and are not specific to the process of triage.

Question 18

All people may not respond well to information provided.People who welcome information are called ____________,whereas others,called______________ avoid it.

Accepted Answer

The terms "monitors" and "blunters" accurately describe people who either seek out information or avoid it, respectively. The other choices do not accurately describe these two types of people.

Accepted Answer

Blunters tend to cope better with stressful health-related situations by receiving less information about the procedures they are to undergo, as too much detail can increase their anxiety.

Question 20

Faulkner (2001)contends that _______________ results in learned helplessness;whereas,_________________ results in learned mastery.

Accepted Answer

Faulkner (2001) argues that disempowering care, which deprives individuals of their autonomy and control, results in learned helplessness. On the other hand, empowering care, which enables individuals to exercise choice and control over their environment, fosters learned mastery. Therefore, the correct choice is D.
