Pathopharmacology Exam 1 |\ |\ |\
(University of Toledo - Patty Sopko) |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS |\ |\
How do secondary infections work?
|\ |\ |\ |\
There is a development if a bacterial infection following a viral
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
infection (Example: Sinus infection (bacterial) following an upper
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
respiratory viral infection |\ |\
What can cause drug resistance to occur/develop?
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Over Prescribing
|\ |\
- Not completing prescribed therapy
|\ |\ |\ |\
- Nosocomial infections (HAI's // Lower resistance)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
What should a physician consider about their patient before
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
starting drug therapy? |\ |\
- Age (Very young, very old)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Allergy status (Helps us differentiate between true
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hypersensitivity and adverse effects) |\ |\ |\
,- Kidney & Liver function (Helps us look for drug toxicity)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Host defenses (Is the patient stressed, fatigued, sick with
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
something else?) |\
- Pregnancy Status (Some drug can cause deformities in fetus)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Genetic Characteristics (Example: Patient has a G6PD
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Deficiency)
- Site of infection (Some drugs don't penetrate all areas of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
infection such as bone or brain) |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
What antibacterial drugs are considered bacteriostatic?
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Small doses of Macrolides [-thromycin]
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Nitrofurantoin (macrodantin)
|\ |\
- Sulfonamides [Sulfa-]
|\ |\
List the vaccines that are live/attenuated.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
- Flu Mist
|\ |\
- Herpes Zoster
|\ |\
, - MMRV
|\
Before beginning drug therapy we should check lab values for
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
our liver & renal functioning levels. What are the specific name
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
for these lab levels?
|\ |\ |\
Liver - ALT , AST
|\ |\ |\ |\
Renal - BUN , CRE |\ |\ |\ |\
What are sulfonamides used to treat? (What infection do they
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
most commonly treat for?)
|\ |\ |\
Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) |\ |\ |\
Our patient comes in with shortness of breath, fatigue, and
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
paleness and they're taking sulfamethoxazole. What
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hematological levels are affected? |\ |\ |\
RBC's
Our patient comes in with a fever and they overall aren't feeling
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
too well and they're taking sulfamethoxazole. What
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
hematological levels are affected? |\ |\ |\
WBC's
