1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
having a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
oncology unit administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer.
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
At the Public Health Department, a nurse administers a measles-
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine to a 14-month-old child as a routine
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
immunization. Which branch of pharmacology best describes the
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
actions of all three nurses?
nm nm nm nm n m
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANSWER: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
are involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics,
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
which is a branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
to treat, prevent, and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
administering a drug to help diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
is administering a drug to help treat adisease. Pharmacoeconomics
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the nm nm nm nm nm nm
body and pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
body.

2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
accident victim. The nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
potential. Under what category would morphine be classified?
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm
A) Schedule I nm
B) Schedule II nm
