1.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

Health Department, a nurse administers a measlesmumps-rubella (MMR)
vaccine to a 14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch
of pharmacology best describes the actions of all three nurses?


A) Pharmacoeconomics


B) Pharmacotherapeus


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 ofdrugs 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 adrug affects the body and
pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.
