Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to document in the client's medical record. The nurse should identify that which of the following abbreviations are specified by The Joint Commission for placement on a facility's Do Not Use list? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A,C,D
Rationale: The correct answer is A, C, and D. The Joint Commission has designated these abbreviations for the Do Not Use list to prevent medication errors. A: U stands for unit, which can be mistaken for the number 0 or the abbreviation for microgram. C: IU stands for international unit, which can be misinterpreted as IV (intravenous) or the number 10. D: q.d stands for every day, but it can be misunderstood as qid (four times a day). These abbreviations have a high risk of confusion and can lead to medication errors.
Choices B, E, F, and G are not specified by The Joint Commission for the Do Not Use list.
