1. A nursing instructor is preparing a teaching plan for a group of nursing
students about pharmacology. When describing this topic, the instructor
would focus the discussion on which of the following as an essential
aspect?
A) Drug name
B) Drug class
C) Drug action
D) Drug
source Answer;
C Feedback:
Pharmacology is the study of drugs and their action on living organisms.
Thus, an essential aspect of pharmacology is drug action. An understanding
of the drug name, drug class, and drug source is important, but the most
critical aspect related to pharmacology is how the drug acts in the body.
2. A nursing student is preparing to administer a prescribed drug to a patient.
The student reviews information about the drug and its actions. Which of
the following would be the best choice for obtaining this information?
Select all that apply.
A) Nursing instructor
B) Nurse assigned to the patient
C) Clinical drug reference
D) Prescribing health care provider
E) Clinical
pharmacist Answer;
C, E
Feedback:
Although the nursing student can ask the nursing instructor, the nurse
assigned to the patient, and the prescribing health care provider for
information about the drug, the best choices for drug information would
include an appropriate drug reference and the clinical pharmacist.
3. When describing the various types of medications to a group of
nursing students, a nursing instructor would identify which of the
following as a source for deriving medications? Select all that apply.
