1.A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having a
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l computerized axial tomography (CAT) scan. A nurse working on an oncology unit
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Health
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine to a
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l 14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of pharmacology
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l best describes the actions of all three nurses?
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANSWER: B
Response:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are involved
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a branch of
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l disease. The nurse working in radiology is administering a drug to help diagnose a
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l disease. The nurse working on an oncology unit is administering a drug to help treat
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
adisease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body, and pharmacokinetics 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
ishow the body acts on the drug.

2.A physician has ordered intramuscular injections of morphine, a narcotic, every 4
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l hours as needed for pain for a motor vehicle accident victim. The nurse is aware
1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l 1l
1l thatthere is a high abuse potential for this drug; therefore, morphine is categorized as
