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


g a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology un
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


it administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Healt
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


h Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-
vl vl vl vl vl vl


rubella (MMR) vaccine to a 14-month- vl vl vl vl vl


old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of pharmacology best des
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


cribes the actions of all three nurses?
vl vl vl vl vl v l




A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
Ans: B
Feedback:

Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are in
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


volved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a bran
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and di
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


agnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help diagnose
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat a disease.
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy. vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body and pharmacokinetic vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


s is how the body acts on the body.

2.
When involved in phase III drug evaluation studies, wh
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


at responsibilities would the nurse have?
vl vl vl vl vl




A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl




B) Choosing appropriate patients to be involved in the drug study
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl




C) Monitoring and observing patients closely for adverse effects

Ans: C
Feedback:

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


patients are asked to record any symptoms they experience while taking the
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


drugs. Nurses may be responsible for helping collect and analyze the inform
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ation to be shared with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but would
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


not conduct research independently because nurses do not prescribe medicat
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ions. Use of animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select p
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


atients who are involved in phase II studies to participate in studies where th
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


e participants have the disease the drug is intended to treat. These patients ar
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


e monitored closely for drug action and adverse effects. Phase I studies invo
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


lve healthy human volunteers who are usually paid for their participation. N
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


urses may observe for adverse effects and toxicity.

3.
A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a nar
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


cotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident victim. Th
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


e nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under what category w
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ould morphine be classified?
vl vl vl




A) Schedule I vl




B) Schedule II vl




C) Schedule III vl




D) Schedule IV vl




Ans: B
Feedback:

Narcotics with a high abuse potential are classified as Schedule II drugs be
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


cause of severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high abuse pot
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ential and no accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser abuse
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


potential than II and an accepted medical use. Schedule IV drugs have low a
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


buse potential and limited dependence liability.

vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


d name drugs?
