,hyperkalemia); available in parental form. Clinical signs and symptoms are monitored
NOT serum levels----used for systolic heart failure and atrial fibrillation.

level was drawn. Which result is within normal therapeutic levels for digoxin?
A. 0.4 ng/mL
B. 0.7 ng/mL
C. 2.1 ng/mL
D. 2.6 ng/mL or higher - B. 0.7 ng/mL (normal 0.5 to 2.0 ng/mL

B. Potassium level 4.9 mEq/L
C. Sodium level 140 mEq/L

, D. Calcium level 10 mg/dL - A. Potassium level 2.8 mEq/L (low potassium normal is 3.5
to 5.0)

10. The nurse administering the phosphodiesterase inhibitor inamrinone recognizes that
this drug should have a positive inotropic effect. This effect will result in increased
A. heart rate.
B. blood vessel dilation.
C. force of cardiac contraction.
D. conduction of electrical impulses across the heart. - C. force of cardiac contraction.
(increase cAMP) positive inotropic (by more calcium available in SR)effect and
vasodilation, (inodilators)---positive chornotropic effect); USED IN ICU; ADVERSE
EFFECT...thrombocytopenia, dysrhythmia, ventricular, hypotension and angina,
hypokalemia, tremor.
