NR 546 Midterm Exam Questions and Answers
Latest Update 2024
1. What should the PMHNP consider when prescribing chemical restraints?
-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
2. 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?
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.
3. How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help guide the
PMHNP in selecting medication for clients?
-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.
4. 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?
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.

13. sensory cortex
pain, heat, and other sensations
14. motor cortex
movement
15. hippocampus
involved in both memory and anxiety
16. nucleus accumbens
involved in the reward process
17. thalamus
involved in sensory organ and motor command processing
18. striatum
involved in complex motor actions, also links cognition to motor
actions
19. limbic system
includes circuits that are associated with pleasure and
reward
20. basal ganglia
group of structures involved in voluntary motor movements
21. amygdala
involved in emotional regulation and perception of odors
22. corpus callosum
controls the communication between the two brain

24. grey matter
contains nerve cells and dendrites
25. brain tissue
made up of grey matter and white matter
26. dorsal striatum
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
27. The field of epigenetics is rapidly growing and can help explain how
gene expression is:
influenced by environmental factors and how epigenetics contributes to
the
manifestation of mental illness
28. How does epigenetics impact a person's mental health?
internal or external factors activate portions of the genome that result
in the
manifestation of mental health symptoms
-activation is often a result of a stressful event, which, when combined with
the genetic
risk, results in the disease
-genes being on or off
-occurrence of symptoms may be the result of inheritance of an abnormal
gene or of
normal genes being "on" when they should be "off."
29. Types of epigenetic changes:
