Output will be at least 100 mL/hour of clear yellow urine within 24 hours. is client-centered, singular, observable, measurable, time-limited, and realistic. Vital signs will return to within normal levels for a middle aged adult. is not measurable (i.e., guidelines for normal are not stat-ed), and it is not time-limited (e.g., by when?). Nursing assistant will ambulate the client in the hallway 3 times each day. is not client-centered. Lungs will be clear to auscultation and respir-atory rate will be 20/minute. is not singular and it is not time-limited.
