Test Bank - Focus on Nursing Pharmacology (9th Edition by Karch) 3
Chapter 01 - Introduction to Drugs
A registered nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a client who is having a computed
tomography (CT) scan. The registered nurse working on the oncology unit administers
chemotherapy to clients who have cancer. At the Public Health Department, a registered nurse
administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine to a 14-month-old child as a routine
immunization. Which branch of pharmacology best describes the actions of all three registered
nurses?
Pharmacoeconomics
Pharmacotherapeutics
Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacokinetics
Answer: B
Rationale:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Registered nurses are involved with
clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a branch of pharmacology that deals with the
uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose disease. The radiology registered nurse is administering a
drug to help diagnose a disease. The oncology registered nurse is administering a drug to help treat a
disease.
Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy. Pharmacodynamics involves how a
drug affects the body and pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.
A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for
pain in a motor vehicle accident victim. The registered nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse
potential.
Under what category would morphine be classified?
Schedule I
Schedule II
Schedule III
