QUESTION 1
To appropriately monitor therapy and client progress, the nurse
should be aware that increased myocardialwork and O2 demand
will occur with which of the following?
A. Positive inotropic therapy
B. Negative chronotropic therapy
C. Increase in balance of myocardial O2 supply and demand
D. Afterload reduction therapy
Correct Answer:
A Section:
Questions Set A
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
(A) Inotropic therapy will increase contractility, which will
increase myocardial O2 demand. (B) Decreased heart rate to
the point of bradycardia will increase coronary artery filling
time. This should be used cautiously because tachycardia may
be a compensatory mechanism to increase cardiac output. (C)
The goal in the care of the MI client with angina is to maintain a
balance between myocardial O2 supply and demand. (D)
Decrease in systemic vascular resistance by drug therapy, such

as IV nitroglycerin or nitroprusside, or intra-aortic balloon pump
therapy, would decrease myocardial work and O2 demand.

receiving which of the followingmedications, owing to its
effects on glycogenolysis and insulin release?
A. Norepinephrine (Levophed)
B. Dobutamine (Dobutrex)
C. Propranolol (Inderal)
D. Epinephrine (Adrenalin)
Correct Answer:
D Section:
Questions Set A
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
(A) Norepinephrine’s side effects are primarily related to safe,
effective care environment and include decreased peripheral
perfusion and bradycardia. (B) Dobutamine’s side effects include
increased heart rate and blood pressure, ventricular ectopy,
nausea, and headache. (C) Propranolol’s side effects
includeelevated blood urea nitrogen, serum transaminase,
alkaline phosphatase, and lactic dehydrogenase. (D) Epinephrine
increases serum glucose levels by increasing glycogenolysis and
inhibiting insulin release. Prolonged use can elevate serum lactate
levels, leading to metabolic acidosis, increased urinary
catecholamines, false elevation of blood urea nitrogen, and
decreased coagulation time.
QUESTION 3
Which of the following medications requires close observation
for bronchospasm in the client with chronicobstructive
pulmonary disease or asthma?

A. Verapamil (Isoptin)
B. Amrinone (Inocor)
C. Epinephrine (Adrenalin)
D. Propranolol (Inderal)
Correct Answer: D
Section:
Questions Set A
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
(A) Verapamil has the respiratory side effect of nasal or chest
congestion, dyspnea, shortness of breath (SOB), and wheezing. (B)
Amrinone has the effect of increased contractility and dilation of
the vascular smooth muscle. It has no noted respiratory side
effects. (C) Epinephrine has the effect of bronchodilation through β
stimulation. (D) Propranolol, esmolol, and labetalol are all β-
blocking agents, which can increase airway resistance and cause
bronchospasms.
QUESTION 4
The following medications were noted on review of the client’s
home medication profile. Which of themedications would most
likely potentiate or elevate serum digoxin levels?
A. KCl
B. Thyroid agents
C. Quinidine
D. Theophylline
