NURS 676 Advanced Pharmacology Exam
2024 | Advanced Pharmacology Nurs 676
Actual Exam Update 2024
sympathetic - ANSWER--Fight or Flight
-Adrenergic Nuerons
-For situations that require alertness and energy
-Increases caardiac output, increase RR, released store energy, dilates
pupils
-In emergencies lowers needs from things like digestion and urination
Parasympathetic - ANSWER--rest and digest
-Cholinergic neurons
- Used in regular situations (restores and conserves)
-slows down heartbeat, decreased RR, stimulates digestion, stores
weight
Drugs affecting the Sympathetic (Adrenergic) Nervous System
-Alpha- Adrenergic physiological activities - ANSWER--vasoconstriction of
arterioles/ higher BP
-pupil dilation
-intestinal relaxation
Drugs affecting the Sympathetic (Adrenergic) Nervous System
-Beta-adrenergic physiological activities - ANSWER--Increased heart rate
-increased contractility
-vasodilation of arterioles supplying skeletal muscles
-bronchial relaxation
-uterine relaxation & smooth muscle relaxation
Drugs affecting the Sympathetic (Adrenergic) Nervous System
Primary use:
Alpha 1 receptors: - ANSWER-Nasal congestion, hypotension, dilation of
pupils
