Drug Development
Drug Development
A six step decision-making approach
What is the nursing process
Delivers nutrition into the GI tract via a tube
Enteral nutrition
The process of drug movement throughout the body necessary to achieve drug action
Pharmacokinetics
When the recurrent use of alcohol and/or drugs causes clinically and functionally significant imapairment, such as health problems, disability, and failure to meet responsibilities
What is substance use disorder
When alpha 1 receptors are stimulated, this occurs
increase in blood pressure
Information gathered from the patient about health and lifestyle
What is assessment
The head of the bed should remain at 30-45 degrees when administering this medication
tube feedings
Four processes of pharmacokinetics
The need for larger doses of a drug to achieve the original euphoria
What is Tolerance
Epinephrine affects different adrenergic receptors. It is said to be
What is nonselective
The nurse provides education, drug administration, patient care, and other intervetions
What is implementation
This nutrition is given through a route other than the GI tract, usually the bloodstream
What is parenteral nutrition
In the liver, some drugs are metabolized to an inactive form and excreted, therefore reduces the amount available in the body. This is called
What is first pass effect
Short term effects include drowsiness, mental confusion, nausea, constipation, and dose-dependent respiratory depression
What is short term effects of opioids?
These drugs promote vasodilation, causing a decrease in blood pressure
What is alpha antagonist
Factors important to help promote patient learning
What is readiness to learn
Pneumothorax, hemothorax, air embolism, infection, hyper/hypoglycemis, and hypervolemia are complications of
What is complications of total parenteral nutrition
Study of the effects of drugs on the body
What is pharmacodynamics
Nonpharmacological therapy for substance use disorders involving recognition of negative patterns and changing thinking for more control
what is cognitive behavioral therapy
This beta blocker is used to treat angina, cardiac dysrhythmias, hypertension, and heart failure
What is propranolol hydrochloride
Six steps of the nursing process include
What is concept, assessment, patient problem, planning, implementation, and evaluation
This line is used if total parenteral nutrition is needed for less than 4 weeks
What is a PICC line
The relationship between therapeutic dose of the drug and toxic dose of the drug
What is therapeutic index
When using alcohol, the patient becomes very ill due to the use of this medication to help prevent relapse
What is disulfiram
This adrenergic blocker promotes vasodilation, decreased blood pressure, reflex tachycardia, mydriasis (constriction of pupil), reduces contraction of smooth muscle in bladder
Alpha 1 blocker
