Question 1 of 5
A nurse is documenting in a client's health record using the subjective, objective, assessment, and plan (SOAP) charting model. Which of the following information should be included in the subjective component?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Client reports chest pain after mowing lawn this morning. In the SOAP charting model, the subjective component includes the client's own reports, feelings, and symptoms. This information is based on the client's perspective and cannot be directly observed by the nurse.
Therefore, the client's report of chest pain after mowing the lawn falls under the subjective component.
Choice A, B, and C are incorrect because they fall under the objective component, which includes measurable and observable data such as medications administered, blood pressure readings, and physical appearance of the client's skin. These are facts that can be verified by the nurse through direct observation or measurement.
In summary, the subjective component of SOAP charting includes the client's own reports and feelings, while the objective component includes measurable and observable data.
