Chapter 1 Introduction To Pharmacology
A Nurse Working In Radiology Administers Iodine To A Patient Who Is
Having A Computed Tomography (Ct) Scan. The Nurse Working On The
Oncology Unit Administers Chemotherapy To Patients Who Have Cancer. At
The Public Health Department, A Nurse Administers A Measles-Mumps-
Rubella (Mmr) Vaccine To A 14-Month-Old Child As A Routine
Immunization. Which Branch Of Pharmacology
1. Best Describes The Actions Of All Three Nurses?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANS: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology Is The Study Of The Biologic Effects Of Chemicals. Nurses Are
Involved With Clinical Pharmacology Or Pharmacotherapeutics, Which Is A
Branch Of Pharmacology That Deals With The Uses Of Drugs To Treat, Prevent,
And Diagnose Disease. The Radiology Nurse Is Administering A Drug To Help
Diagnose A Disease. The Oncology Nurse Is Administering A Drug To Help
Treat A Disease.
Pharmacoeconomics Includes Any Costs Involved In Drug Therapy.
Pharmacodynamics Involves How A Drug Affects The Body And Pharmacokinetics
Is How The Body Acts On The Body.
A Physician Has Ordered Intramuscular (Im) Injections Of Morphine, A Narcotic,
