GRADED A+ -CHAMBERLAIN
What should the PMHNP consider when prescribing chemical restraints?
(CORRECT ANSWER)-allergy status
-prior med hx for adverse drug reactions r/t the meds ordered in the
chemical restraint
-state regulations regarding chemical restrains must be reviewed
Are the PMHNP and other staff liable if the client has an allergic
reaction or adverse side effects to the drugs used for chemical restraint?
(CORRECT ANSWER)No.
The client has been court-ordered to take the prescribed medications and
the standing order for chemical restraints is approved. The PMHNP and
other staff are not liable if the patient has an allergic reaction or adverse
side effects.
How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help guide the
PMHNP in selecting medication for clients? (CORRECT ANSWER)-
Genetic testing can assist by providing more information on how clients
may respond to certain psychotropic medications
-provides information on how a client may break down and metabolize
medications based on the cytochrome P450 system.
,Tanrıkulu and Erbaş (2020) investigated identical twins to determine the
presence of an inherited link for schizophrenia and why one twin may
develop schizophrenia when the other does not. When two people have
100% identical DNA, why don't both persons develop the exact
illnesses? Studies of identical Danish twins found that if one twin had
schizophrenia, the other twin had a 50% lifetime risk of developing
schizophrenia (Lemvigh et al., 2020). Why is there only half the risk?
(CORRECT ANSWER)Both environmental and psychosocial stressors
can impact mental health. Although twins may have identical genes,
their gene expression may be different.
There may be an environmental exposure that turned a gene "on" that
should have been "off" for one twin to develop schizophrenia and not the
other.
central sulcus (CORRECT ANSWER)separates the frontal lobe from
the parietal lobe
frontal lobe (CORRECT ANSWER)associated with movement,
intelligence, abstract thinking
broca's area (CORRECT ANSWER)speech production
temporal lobe (CORRECT ANSWER)involves object identification and
auditory signals
,cerebellum (CORRECT ANSWER)coordination
wernicke's area (CORRECT ANSWER)speech comprehension
occipital lobe (CORRECT ANSWER)primary visual area
parietal lobe (CORRECT ANSWER)keeps us alert to what is going on
around us
sensory cortex (CORRECT ANSWER)pain, heat, and other sensations
motor cortex (CORRECT ANSWER)movement
hippocampus (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in both memory and
anxiety
nucleus accumbens (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in the reward
process
thalamus (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in sensory organ and motor
command processing
striatum (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in complex motor actions,
also links cognition to motor actions
, limbic system (CORRECT ANSWER)includes circuits that are
associated with pleasure and reward
basal ganglia (CORRECT ANSWER)group of structures involved in
voluntary motor movements
amygdala (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in emotional regulation and
perception of odors
corpus callosum (CORRECT ANSWER)controls the communication
between the two brain hemispheres
white matter (CORRECT ANSWER)contains nerve fibers that connect
neurons from different regions into functional circuits
grey matter (CORRECT ANSWER)contains nerve cells and dendrites
brain tissue (CORRECT ANSWER)made up of grey matter and white
matter
dorsal striatum (CORRECT ANSWER)involved in complex motor
actions and linkage of cognition to motor actions
-main input area for basal ganglia
*activated when anticipating or engaging in pleasure
