1. Describe the relevance of the Nurse Practice Act in any state for a nurse
practitioner's practice, including prescriptive authority.: -authority for NP practice defined
by each state
-Nurse practice acts are written by legislators (laws) and authorize Boards of Nursing to establish legal authority
to define who may use the title of NP, the scope of practice for NPs, any practice restrictions, requirements to be
credentialed within the state as NP, and disciplinary grounds for infractions
2. In Tennessee, what body governs nurse practitioner prescriptive authority?-
: Nurse Practice Act (Tennessee code annotated)
3. In Tennessee, what is required for a nurse practitioner to use the title of
advanced practice registered nurse (APRN), practice as an APRN, and prescribe
medications? What is required to prescribe controlled substances?: -Tennessee Nurse
Practice Act is the law that regulates all nurses in TN. They require a state-level certification process for NPs to prescribe
legend drugs.
-DEA needed to prescribe controlled substances
-you must renew RN and APRN each every two years
4. what does LACE stand for regarding the APRN consensus model?: L - Licensure
(legal)
A - Accreditation
C - Certification
E - Education
5. state the steady state equation :: steady state = (f value)(maintenance dose)(half-life) / (vd)(dosing
interval)
6. bacteriocidal :: kill bacteria
7. bacteriostatic:: slows bacterial replication so an individual's immune system can kill it
8. two ways antibiotics are classified:: -how they kill (four methods)
-spectrum ( + or -)
9. gram positive antibiotics:: -older antibiotics
-more narrow spectrum
10. later on with antibiotics :: -we focused on having a broader spectrum with varying degrees of gram
positive coverage
-broader spectrum
