Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: The education was most likely appropriate, but this response is too vague.
Rationale 2: A drug's mechanism of action explains how a drug produces its effect in the body.
Rationale 3: There is no drug name present, so it is not known whether this is a prototype drug.
Rationale 4: The nurse did not explain the consequences of not using the drug.
Global Rationale: A drug's mechanism of action explains how a drug produces its effect in the
body. The nurse did not explain the consequences of not using the drug. There is no drug name
present, so it is not known whether this is a prototype drug. The education was most likely
appropriate, but this response is too vague.

1. "It is expensive, but your insurance covers it and you have a low co-pay."

3. "Drug companies must recoup the cost of developing and producing the drug."
4. "I think the drug companies should be more accountable for lowering costs."

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Telling the client that insurance covers the drug doesn't answer the client’s question.
Rationale 2: Advertising costs are expensive, but this answer implies the drug company is
raising costs unnecessarily.
Rationale 3: If the cost of developing a new drug is not recouped by the drug company, there is
no impetus for the company to continue drug development.
Rationale 4: It is non-therapeutic for the nurse to introduce her own beliefs, such as
accountability of drug companies, into a conversation with the client.
Global Rationale: Telling the client that insurance covers the drug doesn't answer the client’s
question. It is non-therapeutic for the nurse to introduce her own beliefs, such as accountability
of drug companies, into a conversation with the client.

A client with chronic back pain informs the nurse he has been receiving therapeutic touch in
addition to his medications. What is the nurse’s best classification of this client’s treatment?
1. pharmacotherapy.
2. drug-absence therapy
3. complementary therapy
4. biologic therapy

additio...
Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Pharmacotherapy is the application of drugs for the purpose of treating diseases and
alleviating human suffering.
Rationale 2: The client is using medications as well as an alternative therapy.
Rationale 3: The client is using a non-conventional type of treatment (therapeutic touch) that is
classified as complementary to his conventional pharmacotherapy. Biologic therapy involves the
use of naturally produced substances by microorganisms or within the body. The client is using
medications as well as an alternative therapy, which is why complementary therapy is the best
choice.
Rationale 4: Biologic therapy involves the use of naturally produced substances by
microorganisms or within the body.
Global Rationale: The client is using a non-conventional type of treatment (therapeutic touch)
that is classified as complementary to his conventional pharmacotherapy. Pharmacotherapy is the application of drugs for the purpose of treating diseases and alleviating human suffering.
Biologic therapy involves the use of naturally produced substances by microorganisms or within
the body. The client is using medications as well as an alternative therapy, which is why
complementary therapy is the best choice.
