Question 1 • AA - S26 Introduction to Healthcare Science

Javier is a new nurse who is testing a blood glucose monitor to make sure that it is giving accurate results. What would be best for Javier to do when he is done?

Answer
A
use the machine on a patient
B
put the machine back where he found it
C
fill out a quality-control log
D
have the results reviewed by a doctor

Explanation

After testing a blood glucose monitor for accuracy, Javier should document the quality-control results in the appropriate log. This record helps track whether the monitor is functioning properly and provides evidence that the check was completed. Using it on a patient without documenting the check or simply putting it away would not complete the quality-control process.
