Mental Health Northern Kentucky University Proctored Exam 7
During a psychiatric evaluation, the psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner conducts a psychiatric review of systems (ROS) in which she reviews common psychiatric symptoms that may not have been elicited in the history of present illness (HPI). Which of the following questions is most likely designed to elicit a response for the system "mood"?
Explanation & Rationale
Choice A reason: This question addresses self-perception or body image rather than mood disturbances. Choice B reason: This question pertains to health anxiety or obsessive worry, not mood. Choice C reason: This question targets anxiety and control over worry, not mood specifically. Choice D reason: Asking about periods of high energy, reduced need for sleep, and elevated mood screens for mood disorders such as mania or hypomania, making it the most relevant to the mood domain in the psychiatric ROS.
