-prior med hx for adverse drug reactions r/t the meds ordered in the chemical
restraint

adverse side effects to the drugs used for chemical restraint? - ANSWER: No.
The client has been court-ordered to take the prescribed medications and the
standing order for chemical restraints is approved. The PMHNP and other staff are
not liable if the patient has an allergic reaction or adverse side effects.


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.

cognition to motor actions
-main input area for basal ganglia

The field of epigenetics is rapidly growing and can help explain how gene
expression is: - ANSWER: influenced by environmental factors and how
epigenetics contributes to the manifestation of mental illness


How does epigenetics impact a person's mental health? - ANSWER: internal or
external factors activate portions of the genome that result in the manifestation of
mental health symptoms
-activation is often a result of a stressful event, which, when combined with the
genetic risk, results in the disease
-genes being on or off
-occurrence of symptoms may be the result of inheritance of an abnormal gene or
of normal genes being "on" when they should be "off."


Types of epigenetic changes: - ANSWER: DNA Methylation
Histone modification
Non-coding RNA


The potential legal and ethical issues impacting mental health treatment must also
be taken into account, including: - ANSWER: -informed consent
-competence to make healthcare decisions
-off-label prescribing
