NR546 WEEK 1: TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE
QUIZ 100% CORRECT!!
, What should the PMHNP consider when prescribing chemical restraints? - ANSWER -
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
How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help guide the PMHNP in selecting
medication for clients? - ANSWER -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.
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? - ANSWER 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.
central sulcus - ANSWER separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe
frontal lobe - ANSWER associated with movement, intelligence, abstract thinking
broca's area - ANSWER speech production
temporal lobe - ANSWER involves object identification and auditory signals
cerebellum - ANSWER coordination
wernicke's area - ANSWER speech comprehension
occipital lobe - ANSWER primary visual area
parietal lobe - ANSWER keeps us alert to what is going on around us
limbic system - ANSWER includes circuits that are associated with pleasure and reward
