Chapter 01: Nursing Practice in Canada and Drug Therapy
Lilley: Pharmacology for Canadian Health Care Practice, 3rd Canadian Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Which is a judgement about a particular patient\u2018s potential need or
    problem?
    a. A goal
    b. An assessment
    c. Subjective data
    d. A nursing diagnosis
    ANS: D
    Nursing diagnosis is the phase of the nursing process during which
    a clinical judgement is made about how a patient responds to heath conditions and life
    processes or vulnerability forthat response.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge REF: p. 11<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The patient is to receive oral furosemide (Lasix) every day; however, because the patient is
    unable to swallow, he cannot take medication orally, as ordered. The nurse needs to contact
    the physician. What type of problem is this?
    a. A \u2015right time\u2016 problem
    b. A \u2015right dose\u2016 problem
    c. A \u2015right route\u2016 problem
    d. A \u2015right medication\u2016 problem
    ANS: C
    This is a \u2015right route\u2016 problem: the nurse cannot assume the route and must clarify the route
    with the prescriber. This is not a \u2015right time\u2016 problem because the ordered frequency has not
    changed. This is not a \u2015right dose\u2016 problem because the dose is not related to an inability to
    swallow. This is not a \u2015right medication\u2016 problem because the medication ordered will not
    change, just the route.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 14<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. The nurse has been monitoring the patient\u2018s progress on his new drug regimen since the first
    dose and has been documenting signs of possible adverse effects. What nursing process phase
    is the nurse practising?
    a. Planning
    b. Evaluation
    c. Implementation
    d. Nursing diagnosis
    ANS: B
    Monitoring the patient\u2018s progress is part of the evaluation phase. Planning, implementation,
    and nursing diagnosis are not illustrated by this example.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 19<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. The nurse is caring for a patient who has been newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
    Which statement best illustrates an outcome criterion for this patient?
    a. The patient will follow instructions.
    b. The patient will not experience complications.
    c. The patient adheres to the new insulin treatment regimen.
    d. The patient demonstrates safe insulin self-administration technique.
    ANS: D
    Having the patient demonstrate safe insulin self-administration technique is a specific and
    measurable outcome criterion. Following instructions and avoiding complications are not
    specific criteria. Adherence to the new insulin treatment regimen is not objective and would
    be difficult to measure.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 13<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Which activity best reflects the implementation phase of the nursing process for the patient
    who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus?
    a. Providing education regarding self-injection technique
    b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the patient\u2018s input
    c. Recording a history of over-the-counter medications used at home
    d. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding knowledge deficits related to the new
    treatment regimen
    ANS: A
    Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. Setting goals and
    outcome criteria reflects the planning phase. Recording a drug history reflects the assessment
    phase. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding a knowledge deficit reflects analysis of data
    as part of the planning phaseN.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Analysis REF: p. 8 | p. 13<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. The nurse is working during a very busy night shift, and the health care provider has just
    given the nurse a medication order over the telephone, but the nurse does not recall the route.
    What is the best way for the nurse to avoid medication errors?
    a. Recopy the order neatly on the order sheet, with the most common route indicated
    b. Consult with the pharmacist for clarification about the most common route
    c. Call the health care provider to clarify the route of administration
    d. Withhold the drug until the health care provider visits the patient
    ANS: C
    If a medication order does not include the route, the nurse must ask the health care provider to
    clarify it. Never assume the route of administration.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Application | Cognitive Level: Analysis REF: p. 17<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Which constitutes the traditional Five Rights of medication administration?
    a. Right drug, right route, right dose, right time, and right patient
    b. Right drug, the right effect, the right route, the right time, and the right patient
    c. Right patient, right strength, right diagnosis, right drug, and right route
    d. Right patient, right diagnosis, right drug, right route, and right time
    ANS: A<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The traditional Five Rights of medication administration were considered to be Right drug,
    Right route, Right dose, Right time, and Right patient. Right effect, right strength, and right
    diagnosis are not part of the traditional Five Rights.
    DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: p. 13<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. What correctly describes the nursing process?
      a. Diagnosing, planning, assessing, implementing, and finally evaluating
      b. Assessing, then diagnosing, implementing, and ending with evaluating
      c. A linear direction that begins with assessing and continues through diagnosing,
      planning, and finally implementing
      d. An ongoing process that begins with assessing and continues with diagnosing,
      planning, implementing, and evaluating
      ANS: D
      The nursing process is an ongoing, flexible, adaptable, and adjustable five-step process that
      begins with assessing and continues through diagnosing, planning, implementing, and finally
      evaluating, which may then lead back to any of the other phases.
      DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 8<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. When the nurse is considering the timing of a drug dose, which is most important to assess?
      a. The patient\u2018s identification
      b. The patient\u2018s weight
      c. The patient\u2018s last meal
      d. Any drug or food allergies
      ANS: C
      The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the drug need to be assessed with
      regard to any drug\u2013food interactions or compatibility issues. The patient\u2018s identification,
      weight, and drug or food allergies are not affected by the drug\u2018s timing.
      DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 17<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. The nurse is writing nursing diagnoses for a plan of care. Which reflects the correct format for
      her nursing diagnosis?
      a. Anxiety
      b. Anxiety related to new drug therapy
      c. Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements
      such as \u2015I\u2018m upset about having to give myself shots\u2016
      d. Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as \u2015I\u2018m
      upset about having to give myself shots\u2016
      ANS: D<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. The only complete answer is
      \u2015Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as \u2017I\u2018m upset about
      having to give myself shots.\u2018\u2016 The answer \u2015Anxiety\u2016 is missing the \u2015related to\u2016 and \u2015as
      evidenced by\u2016 portions. The answer \u2015Anxiety related to new drug therapy\u2016 is missing the \u2015as
      evidenced by\u2016 portion of defining characteristics. The \u2015related to\u2016 section in \u2015Anxiety related
      to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as \u2017I\u2018m upset about
      having to give myself shots\u2018\u2016 is simply a restatement of the problem \u2015anxiety,\u2016 not a separate
      factor related to the response.

        MULTIPLE CHOICE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. A patient is receiving two different drugs, which, at their current dose forms and dosages, are
          both absorbed into the circulation in identical amounts. Which term best denotes that the
          drugs have the same absorption rates?
          a. Equivalent
          b. Synergistic
          c. Compatible
          d. Bioequivalent
          ANS: D
          Two drugs absorbed into the circulation at the same amount (in specific dosage forms) have
          the same bioavailability; thus, they are bioequivalent. \u2015Equivalent\u2016 is incorrect because the
          term \u2015bioavailability\u2016 is used to express the extent of drug absorption. \u2015Synergistic\u2016 is
          incorrect because this term refers to two drugs given together whose resulting effect is greater
          than the sum of the effects of each drug given alone. \u2015Compatible\u2016 is incorrect because this
          term is a general term used to indicate that two substances do not have a chemical reaction
          when mixed (or given, in the case of drugs) together.
          DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: p. 26<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. A patient is receiving medication via intravenous injection. Which information should the
          nurse provide for patient education?
          a. The medication will causeUfewSer aNdverTse effecOts when given intravenously.
          b. The medication will be absorbed slowly into the tissues over time.
          c. The medication\u2018s action will begin faster when given intravenously.
          d. Most of the drug is inactivated by the liver before it reaches the target area.
          ANS: C
          Intravenous injections are the fastest route of absorption. The intravenous route does not
          affect the number of adverse effects, the intravenous route is not a slow route of absorption,
          and the intravenous route does not cause inactivation of the drug by the liver before it reaches
          the target area.
          DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension REF: p. 32<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Which is true regarding parenteral drugs?
          a. They bypass the first-pass effect.
          b. They decrease blood flow to the stomach.
          c. They are altered by the presence of food in the stomach.
          d. They exert their effects while circulating in the bloodstream.
          ANS: A
