1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




unit administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




Health Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR)
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




vaccine toa 14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch
pp pp p pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




of pharmacology best describes the actions of all three nurses?
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp p p




A) Pharmacoeconomics

B) Pharmacotherapeutics

C) Pharmacodynamics

D) Pharmacokinetics

Ans: B

Feedback:

Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent,
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




treat adisease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug
pp pp p pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




therapy.
pp




Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




andpharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.

pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




responsibilitieswould the nurse have?

A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs

Ans: C

Feedback:

Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




whichpatients are asked to record any symptoms they experience while
pp p pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




taking thedrugs. Nurses may be responsible for helping collect and
pp pp p pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




analyze the information to be shared with the Food and Drug
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




Administration (FDA) butwould not conduct research independently
pp pp pp p pp pp pp pp




because nurses do not prescribe medications. Use of animals in drug
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select patients who are involved
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




in phase II studies to participate in studies where the participants have
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




the disease the drug is intended to treat. These patients are monitored
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




closely for drug action and adverse effects. Phase I studies involve
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




healthy human volunteers who are usually paid for their participation.
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




Nurses may observe for adverse effects and toxicity.

3. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




victim.The nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under
pp p pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




what categorywould morphine be classified?
pp pp p pp pp pp




A) Schedule I pp




B) Schedule II pp




C) Schedule III pp




D) Schedule IV pp




Ans: B

Feedback:

Narcotics with a high abuse potential are classified as Schedule II drugs
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




because of severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high abuse
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




potential and no accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




abuse potential than II and an accepted medical use. Schedule IV drugs
pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp pp




havelow abuse potential and limited dependence liability.
