A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a newly licensed nurse about documenting vital signs. Which of the following documentation made by the newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching? A. Temperature 36.9┬░ C (98.4┬░F) B. Pulse 82/min, client sitting in a chair C. Blood pressure 108/68 mm Hg D. Respirations auscultated, even at 22/min, client supine Which of the following documentation made by the newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching?

The correct answer is D. Documenting "Respirations auscultated, even at 22/min, client supine" indicates an understanding of proper vital sign documentation. This documentation includes the method used to assess respirations, the rate obtained, and the client's position during assessment. This comprehensive documentation ensures accuracy and consistency in recording vital signs.
Choice A is incorrect because it lacks details about the method of assessment and client position. Choice B only provides the pulse rate and client position but lacks information on the assessment method. Choice C includes blood pressure values but does not mention details about the assessment technique or client position. Therefore, choice D is the most appropriate as it includes all necessary components for accurate vital sign documentation.
