113) Describe the two distinct layers of the skin and what is contained within each. Answer: Answers will vary. The skin is made up of two distinct layers: the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is made up of two types of cells, melanocytes and keratinocytes. The melanocytes contain melanin, a skin-color pigment that gives a person's skin its characteristic color. Keratinocytes produce a hard protein, keratin, which is waterproof and acts as a protective barrier to pathogens and chemicals. The dermis is made up primarily of collagen, blood vessels, nerves, lymphatic tissue, and connective tissue. Other structures include hair follicles, Sebaceous glands (oil glands), sudoriferous glands (sweat glands), and sense receptors.

These substances include nutrients, waste products, oxygen, carbon dioxide, minerals, hormones, drugs, and body heat. The blood plays an important role in the body's defense against disease. The four chambers of the heart are divided into two chambers on the right side and two chambers on the left side. The contractions of the chambers increase the pressure within the ventricles, which forces the blood through a system of valves and out into the general circulation. The three main types of vessels are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins travel toward the heart and, except for the pulmonary vein, carry deoxygenated blood. The capillaries serve the important function of carrying oxygen and other nutrients to the tissues and taking away the waste products.

113) Describe the effects of aging on the cardiovascular system. Answer: Answers will vary. High blood pressure, coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and congestive heart failure occur much more frequently in the over-60 age group. Certain changes in the heart are associated with aging. The heart usually becomes larger because it loses its elasticity, and it has a deeper color because there is less oxygen in the heart tissue. The endocardium becomes thicker and sclerotic (hardened), and the aorta and the arteries are less elastic. The valves thicken and are more rigid. These changes lead to problems in filling and emptying the heart, which result in decreased oxygen intake and output.

115) Describe the care that a patient on anticoagulants must receive. Answer: Answers will vary. Anticoagulants are strong drugs. Dosages must be adjusted carefully because they can lead to internal hemorrhage. Patients taking anticoagulants must routinely be monitored. Depending on the anticoagulant therapy prescribed, blood clotting tests including prothrombin time (PT), or international normalized ratio (INR), sometimes referred to as PT-INR are monitored. Other tests for patients on heparin-based therapies include thromboplastin time (PTT), and an activated clotting time (aPTT). They must also be observed for signs of blood in the urine and feces (red or dark brown urine and tarry stools) and bleeding from the skin or mucous membranes, which indicate an overdose of medication.

Answer: Answers will vary. One way to tell if the heart and vessels are working properly is by measuring a patient's blood pressure. This is the force of the blood against the walls of the blood vessels. Blood pressure results from a combination of two factors: the force of the heartbeat and the condition of the vessel. The walls of normal blood vessels are elastic and able to expand. If vessels lose elasticity because of disease, such as arteriosclerosis, the heart must pump against stiff, narrow vessel walls. The heart must also pump harder if vessels are partially blocked by deposits of fat, as in atherosclerosis. Either situation results in a higher blood pressure reading.

117) Describe the effects that adrenergics have on the body. Answer: Answers will vary. Adrenergics (also known as vasoconstrictors) act by mimicking the action of norepinephrine and epinephrine by combining with alpha and beta receptors or as a result of, or regulation of, the release of neurohormones from their storage sites at the nerves' terminals. They raise blood pressure by causing the blood vessels to contract. They are used in the treatment of shock, heart block (failure of electrical impulses to stimulate the heartbeat), and adverse reactions to medications. Difficulty: 2 Medium Topic: Drugs for Cardiovascular and Blood Disorders Bloom's: Understand Learning Outcome: 10-5 Describe the actions and special procedures for administration of these drug groups: adrenergics, vasodilators, diuretics, antihypertensives, calcium channel blockers, antilipemics, cardiac glycosides, antiarrhythmics (antidysrhythmics), anticoagulants, thrombolytics, hemostatics, hematinics, and antiplatelets.

C. 2. Identify body systems; I. C. 11. Identify the classifications of medications, including desired effects, side effects and adverse reactions
119) Describe the effects that antihypertensives have on the body. Answer: Answers will vary. There are several drugs that are used to lower blood pressure; they are called antihypertensives. The first of these are angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors that suppress the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. They prevent the formation of angiotensin II, which normally causes the blood vessels to narrow. As a result of this, ACE inhibitors cause the vessels to become wider and the blood pressure decreases. Another category of antihypertensives are the beta blockers, which have a beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic blocking activity. They decrease the nerve impulses to the heart and blood vessels, causing the heart to beat slower and with less force. The result is a decreased workload on the heart and a decrease in blood pressure. The alpha blockers inhibit alpha-adrenergic receptors by decreasing the nerve impulses to the blood vessels, resulting in easier blood flow and causing the blood pressure to lower. Difficulty: 2 Medium Topic: Drugs for Cardiovascular and Blood Disorders Bloom's: Understand Learning Outcome: 10-5 Describe the actions and special procedures for administration of these drug groups: adrenergics, vasodilators, diuretics, antihypertensives, calcium channel blockers, antilipemics, cardiac glycosides, antiarrhythmics (antidysrhythmics), anticoagulants, thrombolytics, hemostatics, hematinics, and antiplatelets.

121) Describe the effects that antilipemics have on the body. Answer: Answers will vary. HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) increase the HDL (good) cholesterol and decrease the LDL (bad) cholesterol, total cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, VLDL cholesterol, and plasma triglycerides. HMG-CoA reductase is normally an enzyme that catalyzes the early rate-limiting step in the synthesis of cholesterol. Bile acid sequestrants are drugs that bind with sodium cholate (bile salts), which are the primary precursors of cholesterol that are not absorbed as result of the formation of an insoluble complex and are excreted in the feces.

106) Name and describe the parts of the respiratory system. Answer: Answers will vary. The respiratory system consists of the organs that make it possible for blood to exchange gases with air. They are the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and lung. Air enters the body through the mouth or the nose. As air enters the nose, very small hairs called cilia warm and moisten the air and trap dust particles and bacteria. The pharynx is a tubelike structure that extends from the base of the skull to the esophagus and serves both the respiratory tract and the digestive tract. The larynx is responsible for making sounds. The larynx serves a protective function because the epiglottis, a leaf-shaped structure on top of the larynx, closes the airway when a person swallows. The epiglottis thus keeps food and saliva from entering the lungs. The larynx joins a tube called the trachea, or windpipe, which leads into the lungs. The trachea branches off into two tubes: the right and left bronchi, which lead to the right and left lungs. They provide a place where the exchange of gases can take place between blood and air.

113) Name the major parts of the GI system and tell what they do. Answer: Answers will vary. 1. Mouth: The teeth and the tongue work together to break food into small pieces. 2. Esophagus: The food then passes into the esophagus, the part of the GI tract that extends from the pharynx to the stomach. Chunks of food are pushed down the esophagus by peristaltic movements of the tube lining. 3. Stomach. The stomach is a gourd-shaped pouch that can expand to hold up to 2 quarts of food and liquid. After entering the stomach, food is churned around by muscles in the stomach wall and mixed with gastric juice. 4. Small Intestine: Digestive juices complete the process of breaking down food into molecules of protein, sugar, fat, minerals. The villi are responsible for absorbing nutrients into the bloodstream. 5. Large intestine: Excess water is absorbed into the bloodstream, leaving undigested wastes. 6. Liver: Its role in the GI system is to secrete bile, a substance that aids in digesting fats. The liver stores nutrients absorbed from the small intestine. The liver also removes certain waste products from the blood, and it produces important substances for blood clotting and the immune system. 7. Pancreas: It produces digestive juices that complete the chemical changes that turn fats, proteins, and carbohydrates into particles that can be absorbed. The pancreas also secretes insulin, a hormone that regulates the amount of sugar used by the cells.

51) Which of the following is not a reason that a gland may secrete too much, too little, or too early? A) hyperplasia B) tumor C) genetic factors D) faulty messages from the pituitary E) All of these cause a gland to secrete too, much, too little, or too early. Answer: E Explanation: There are many reasons a gland may secrete too much, too little, or too early. One is that the gland may be overdeveloped, a condition called hyperplasia. Or it may contain a tumor. Usually tumors and hyperplasia cause too much hormone production because they are far from secreting cells than normal. Genetic factors are another reason for gland malfunctions. Some individuals are born with defective glands or are missing necessary chemicals for producing certain hormones. Finally, there may be nothing wrong with a gland itself. The problem may be that the gland is receiving faulty messages from the pituitary.

It is characterized by periods of remissions and exacerbations. It also is a significant national health problem, particularly in women. The symptoms are pain in the joints (especially of the wrists, fingers, ankles, and other peripheral joints, such as the elbows, shoulders, knees, and hips) and stiffness. The stiffness occurs mainly in the morning and tends to improve throughout the day. There may also be fever, anorexia, weight loss, weakness, easy tiring, and aching muscles. The inflamed joints may feel warm to the touch. As the disease progresses, cartilage is slowly destroyed and the bones may even fuse together, causing loss of movement and sometimes deformity.

Gout, or gouty arthritis, is an inflammation of the joints that starts when there is an excess of uric acid in the bloodstream. Uric acid is a normal waste product of cell metabolism. In gout, either the kidneys do not excrete uric acid efficiently or there is some reason (genetic, chemotherapy, etc.) that makes the body produce larger than normal amounts of uric acid. Because the uric acid is not completely excreted, crystals of the acid are deposited in the cartilage around the joints such as thoNsUeRoSfINthGeTbBi.gCOtoMe, ankle, knee, and elbow. The deposits cause the joints to become red, hot, swollen, and painful.

115) Describe the actions and give examples of central nervous system stimulants. Answer: Answers will vary. They were formerly used to treat obesity and to counteract overdoses of CNS depressant drugs. Today, however, they are essentially obsolete. Their use is limited in practice to attention-deficit disorder and episodes of excessive drowsiness and uncontrolled sleep attacks during the day (narcolepsy). Examples of CNS stimulants used for attention-deficit disorder and narcolepsy are methylphenidate hydrochloride (Ritalin), amphetamine mixtures (Adderall), and methylphenidate (Concerta). Although caffeine is not often thought of as a drug, it is a CNS stimulant. Doxapram (Dopram), are used in the treatment of respiratory depression induced by drug overdose.

116) Describe the actions and give examples of analgesics. Answer: Answers will vary. Analgesics are drugs that relieve pain either by affecting the brain itself or by interfering with the ability of pain receptors around the body to send pain messages to the brain. One large group of analgesics is the narcotics. Along with pain relief, these drugs bring euphoria and a sense of calm; therefore, they are often abused. Examples of narcotic analgesics are morphine, codeine, oxycodone (OxyContin), meperidine (Demerol), methadone, pentazocine (Talwin), hydrocodone with acetaminophen (Vicodin), and oxycodone with acetaminophen (Percocet). Morphine sulfate and naltrexone (Embeda) is an extended-release drug for pain. Tramadol (Ultram) is a centrally acting analgesic that is not chemically related to opiates. A common group of nonnarcotic analgesics has the ability to reduce fever (antipyretic) as well as relieve pain. This group includes the familiar drugs aspirin and acetaminophen (Tylenol). Analgesic antipyretics are often combined with narcotic analgesics or sedatives in prescription pain relievers—for example, Tylenol with Codeine, and Fiorinal (butalbital with aspirin and codeine). Ibuprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.

119) Describe the actions and give examples of Alzheimer's drugs. Answer: Answers will vary. Treatment for Alzheimer's disease focuses on cholinesterase inhibitors such as donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), which are responsible for the breakdown of acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft. Memantine (Namenda) is an N-methyl-Daspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist in which NMDA receptors are activated in the brain by glutamate, an excitatory amino acid. It is used in the treatment of moderate to severe Alzheimer's disease. Other drugs have been useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Antidepressants such as sertraline (Zoloft), fluoxetine (Prozac), amitriptyline, and nortriptyline and antipsychotics such as loxapine (Loxitane), haloperidol, risperidone (Risperdal), olanzapine (Zyprexa), and quetiapine (Seroquel) may be used to alleviate manifestations.

121) List the general instructions for administering pain medications. Answer: Answers will vary. To be effective, analgesics must be given on time. The objective is to keep the patient as comfortable as possible. Let patients know that the medication you are giving is for pain. If the pain reliever is a narcotic, remember to discard the unused portion (chart this properly!) and the equipment used to administer it. Some analgesics have antipyretic (fever-reducing) effects. With these drugs, take the patient's temperature as ordered, give extra liquids, and chart these procedures so that the doctor can review the patient's progress. Pain medications ordered before surgery must be given on time so that they take effect before the procedure begins. Insist on undisturbed bed rest for the patient after giving a preoperative medication. After surgery, check on the patient often and administer pain medications as needed.

105) Describe the methods of administration for intramuscular medications in the pediatric patient. Answer: The small volume of prescribed medication administered in an intramuscular injection poses unique risks for the pediatric patient who has a small amount of tissue. Very small volumes, such as less than 1 mL, should be administered in a low-dose (0.5-mL) syringe to ensure accuracy. Such syringes, with specially designed needles, decrease the chance of administering inaccurate doses because of a dead space, space that allows fluid to remain in the syringe and needle after the plunger is completely pushed forward. Generally, a minimum of 0.2 mL is left in the standard needle hub, especially when two drugs are mixed in the same syringe. When mixing two drugs in the same syringe, such as insulin, it is recommended to always draw up the two drugs in the same order, use the same brand of syringe, and use the needle permanently attached to decrease the risk of dead space occurring. Furthermore, flushing the syringe is not recommended after medication administration because this practice may also result in dead space. Medications such as iron and diphtheria and tetanus toxoid are specifically irritating and may result in irritation when tracked into the subcutaneous tissue; they should be administered by Ztrack. Changing the needle after drawing up the medication and before giving it is a practice that also decreases tracking. Needle size and gauge are also specific considerations for infants and children.
