cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




having a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




oncology unit administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer.
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




At the Public Health Department, a nurse administers a measles-
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




mumps- rubella (MMR) vaccine toa 14-month-old child as a routine
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




immunization. Which branch of pharmacology best describes the
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




actions of all three nurses?
cv c v cv cv c v




A) Pharmacoeconomics

B) Pharmacotherapeutics

C) Pharmacodynamics

D) Pharmacokinetics

Ans: B

, Feedback:

Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




are involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics,
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv




which is a branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse
cv cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




is administering a drug to help diagnose a disease. The oncology
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




nurse is administering a drug to help treat adisease.
cv cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv




Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv




Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the cv cv cv cv cv cv




body andpharmacokinetics is how the body acts on
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv




the body.

2. When involved in phase III drug evaluation studies,
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




what responsibilitieswould the nurse have?
cv c v cv cv cv




A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs
cv cv cv cv cv cv c v




B) Choosing appropriate patients to be involved in the drug study
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv c v




C) Monitoring and observing patients closely for adverse effects
cv cv cv cv cv cv c v




D) Conducting research to determine effectiveness of the drug cv cv cv cv cv cv c v




Ans: C

Feedback:

Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




whichpatients are asked to record any symptoms they experience
c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




c while taking thedrugs. Nurses may be responsible for helping
v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




collect and analyze the information to be shared with the Food and
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




Drug Administration (FDA) butwould not conduct research
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv




independently because nurses do not prescribe medications. Use of
cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select
cv cv cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv cv




patients who are involved in phase II studies to participate in
cv cv cv cv c v cv cv cv cv cv cv




studies where the participants have the disease the drug is
cv cv cv cv cv c v cv cv cv cv




intended to treat. These patients are monitored closely for drug
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv c v cv cv




action and adverse effects. Phase I studies involve healthy human
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv c v cv




volunteers who are usually paid for their participation. Nurses may
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv c v cv




observe for adverse effects and toxicity.
