Development of a comprehensive examination to evaluate licensed practical nurses' cognitive knowledge of intravenous therapy administration.

Abstract

In this article, the authors describe the systematic and collaborative processes used by a group of nursing educators to develop a comprehensive exam to evaluate licensed practical nurses' cognitive knowledge of intravenous therapy practice. The examination was written to meet the new requirements mandated by the State of Florida Board of Nursing related to the expanded role of the licensed practical nurse. After statistical analysis and test revision, the examination would eventually be a challenge examination for those licensed practical nurses who had acquired this knowledge previously.
