The client asks the nurse for a walker to ambulate The client’s oral intake is 850 mL and urinary output is 1250 mL The client is lethargic, is drowsy, and has increasing weakness The client has abnormal bleeding when brushing the teeth 25 Which statement best describes the scientific rationale for administering calcitonin (Calcimar) to a client diagnosed with osteoporosis? It blocks estrogen receptors in the uterus and breast It inhibits bone reabsorption by suppressing osteoclast activity It increases bone density and reduces the risk of vertebral fractures It increases the progesterone and estrogen levels in the blood 26 The nurse is discussing ways to prevent osteoporosis to a group of elderly women A woman in the audience asks, “Why aren’t doctors prescribing hormone replacement therapy?” Which statement by the nurse is most appropriate? “There are many other, better ways to treat osteoporosis than HRT.” “HRT treatment is very expensive and many insurances will not pay.” “There is an increased risk of cancer and deep vein thrombosis associated with HRT.” “Research has shown that it is not effective in treating osteoporosis.” 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 217 CHAPTER MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM 27 Which assessment data best indicates to the nurse that the medication therapy for a client with osteoporosis has been effective? The client’s serum calcium level is 7.5 mg/dL The client does not experience any pathological fractures The client has adequate urinary output The client loses less than inch in height 28 The client with osteoporosis is prescribed sodium fluoride, a mineral Which information should the nurse discuss with the client?

Have the client use a pediatric faces scale Do not try to get the client to rate the pain The nurse should decide the amount of pain Check the pulse and blood pressure for elevation 217 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 218 218 PHARMACOLOGY SUCCESS 34 The male client who has had bilateral knee replacement surgery calls the nurse’s desk and reports that he noticed bruises on both sides of his abdomen while taking his bath The client’s MAR notes Ancef, an antibiotic; morphine, a narcotic analgesic; and Lovenox, a low-molecular-weight heparin Which statement is the nurse’s best response to the client? “This is a reaction to the antibiotic you are receiving and it will need to be changed.” “This is caused by straining when trying to have a bowel movement.” “This occurs because of the positioning during the surgical procedure.” “This happened because of the medication used to prevent complications.” 35 The client who has had a total knee surgery returns to the room with an autotransfusion drainage system (cell saver) device inserted into the wound Which interventions should the nurse implement? Select all that apply Monitor the drainage in the collection chamber every 30–45 minutes Take the drainage to the blood bank when it reaches 200 mL Attach a filter to the drainage before administering Have a second nurse verify the client’s ID band Monitor vital signs every 5–15 minutes when transfusing the blood 36 The 78-year-old client who had hip surgery is to receive a unit of packed red blood cells (PRBC) The nurse’s assessment reveals bilateral crackles in the lungs and 2+ edema of the sacrum The PRBCs contain 250 mL of cells and 60 mL of preservative solution At what rate will the nurse set the IV infusion pump after the initial 15 minutes? Answer 37 A 10-year-old child sustained a compound fracture of the left forearm and has just returned to the unit after an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) Which interventions should the nurse implement? Select all that apply Assess the child’s ability to rate the pain on a pain scale Ask the parent to determine when the child needs pain medication Apply a heat pack to the cast until the cast is completely dry Check the child’s fingertips for warmth and color every 15 minutes Administer the prophylactic antibiotic as prescribed by surgeon 38 The nurse is administering medications at 2100 Which medication should the nurse question? An NSAID to a 24-year-old female client recovering from an arthroscopy An opioid analgesic to a 50-year-old male client with a fractured femur A sedative hypnotic to a 65-year-old female client with a total knee replacement A muscarinic antagonist to an 89-year-old male client with a hip fracture 39 The client is postoperative for a cervical laminectomy and is prescribed meperidine (Demerol), a narcotic analgesic, by patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump Which instruction regarding pain control should the nurse teach the client? Notify the nurse when needing pain medication Press the button on the pump when the client feels pain Have the significant other push the button on the pump frequently Use the pain medication sparingly to prevent narcotic addiction 40 The nurse and unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) are caring for clients on an orthopedic unit Which action by the UAP requires immediate intervention? The UAP obtains a fracture pan for a client with a laminectomy to use The UAP attempts to ambulate an elderly client immediately after receiving pain medication Prior to bedtime, the UAP provides a back rub to a client with low back pain The UAP places moisture barrier cream on a client’s perineal area ANSWERS AND RATIONALES 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 219 ANSWERS AND RATIONALES The correct answer number and rationale for why it is the correct answer are given in boldface blue type Rationales for why the other possible answer options are not correct are also given, but they are not in boldface type A Client With Low Back Pain 1 Taking the medication before leaving the house could be a danger to the client and others because this medication can cause drowsiness The client should not be driving or operating equipment until the client has determined the effect of the medication on his or her body There is no need to drink a full glass of water when taking Flexeril The medication acts on the central nervous system and can cause drowsiness The client should be warned not to drive until the client understands the effects on his or her body Driving could be dangerous for the client and others This is prescribing The HCP will prescribe how frequently the dose should be administered A side effect of Flexeril is a dry mouth, so using hard candy is an appropriate intervention Physical therapy for heat and massage is standard therapy for back pain There is no reason to question this order Many medications can affect the kidneys or the liver and the blood counts Baseline data should be obtained There is no reason to question this order This medication order is incomplete The nurse should contact the HCP for a time limitation Soma comes in one strength, so this order is complete There is no reason to question this order MEDICATION MEMORY JOGGER: All medication orders must be complete, and the nurse is responsible for determining all the parameters before administering a medication NSAIDs decrease prostaglandin production in the stomach, increasing the client’s risk of developing ulcers This client has a known risk of peptic ulcer disease The nurse should question the medication and discuss this with the HCP Opioid analgesics are administered for pain The client is in the moderate to severe pain range The nurse would administer this medication Muscle relaxant medications are administered to clients with back pain to relax the muscles and decrease the pain The nurse would administer this medication Darvon N is a pain medication The nurse would administer this medication Narcotic pain medications slow peristalsis in the small and large intestines, increasing the risk for constipation and fecal impaction The nurse should discuss a bowel regimen with the HCP The nurse should attempt to have the client quantify the pain so that the effectiveness of interventions can be evaluated The numeric pain scale is one method of objectifying the pain Rising quickly from a flat-on-the-back (supine) position could increase the client’s pain Some of the medications administered for back pain can cause orthostatic hypotension The nurse should teach the client to turn on the side and push up on the elbow slowly when getting out of bed The client may be taking antispasmodic and pain medications, but there is no reason for anticonvulsant medications This is a safety issue The client should call for assistance to prevent falls Intrathecal indicates into the central nervous system via a lumbar puncture The client will be positioned with the back arched, much like a Halloween cat, for the HCP to be able to insert the needle between the vertebrae The procedure provides temporary relief of inflammation of affected nerves The injections are into the intravertebral space, not into the hips An injection in the hips indicates an intramuscular injection There is risk with any procedure In this procedure, nerve damage is the greatest risk The client’s complaint of a headache occurs frequently when clients have not been able to eat or drink, especially caffeine drinks This is not a priority at this time The standard surgical scrub is a povidoneiodine (Betadine) antiseptic skin preparation This should be brought to the attention of the surgical nurse who will 219 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 220 220 PHARMACOLOGY SUCCESS be preparing the surgical site so that a substitute can be used Clients going to surgery should be NPO for several hours to prevent aspiration during anesthesia This is a normal hematocrit This is important, but it is not priority during the initial assessment The nurse should determine how the client has been treating the injury This would be the second query, not the first The priority at this time is to determine what medications have been tried in order to assess the full extent of the injury This is the first intervention Adult clients will frequently only seek the HCP’s advice and treatment when over-the-counter remedies have failed This is an accusatory statement and most likely will make the client mistrust the nurse’s objectives This should not be asked at this time This is the third query the nurse could ask Missed work time is important, but to treat the client, the HCP must be aware of the attempted treatments This medication is not known to increase the risk of ulcers The client should be warned not to consume any alcohol while taking baclofen Baclofen is a central nervous system depressant, as is alcohol The combination of alcohol and baclofen could intensify the depressant effects Baclofen must be tapered off when being discontinued Abrupt withdrawal after prolonged use can cause anxiety, agitated behavior, hallucinations, severe tachycardia, acute spasticity, and seizures The medication can cause drowsiness, which might assist the client to rest Administration at bedtime is preferred if this is so MEDICATION MEMORY JOGGER: There is rarely any medication for which the client will be told that concurrent administration with alcohol is appropriate MS Contin is a sustained-release tablet This medication is to provide relief of chronic pain over the course of the day It does not need to be the first medication administered The client prescribed bed rest usually takes a muscle relaxant as a routine medication; it does not need to be administered first A headache that is to be treated with Tylenol (for mild pain) would not be the first medication for the nurse to administer A client having muscle spasms is a priority for the nurse Muscle spasms can be extremely painful This medication should be administered first 10 The client should be kept recumbent during and for at least 15 minutes following the administration of Robaxin IV to reduce the risk of orthostatic hypotension The medication must be administered slowly at a rate of no greater than 300 mg per minute, not by rapid infusion The IV site should be assessed prior to the initiation of the medication to prevent complications from extravasation of the medication into the tissues Robaxin is detoxified by the kidneys, not the liver A Client With Renal Osteoarthritis 11 The client should not take aspirin with an NSAID because it can increase the risk of gastrointestinal upset and possible gastrointestinal bleeding Allergies to antibiotics are not a contraindication to the use of NSAIDs Obesity is not contraindicated in clients taking NSAIDs Exercising is recommended for clients with osteoarthritis unless it causes pain; therefore, this activity would not warrant the client not taking Celebrex 12 Any bleeding into the joint is a complication Bleeding into a joint would not be the expected benefit of any type of medication After the injection the client can walk and perform routine daily activities, but running, bicycling, or strenuous activity should be avoided Hyalgan is a preparation of a chemical normally found in high amounts in the synovial fluid The injection replaces or supplements the body’s natural hyaluronic acid that deteriorates as a result of the inflammation of osteoarthritis The treatment includes three to five injections; the client receives one injection every week This injection is done in an HCP’s office, and the client will be able to walk out of the clinic after the injection 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 221 CHAPTER MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM MEDICATION MEMORY JOGGER: The nurse should realize that the joint must have time for the medication to be effective and injecting daily would not allow this The nurse should realize that a medication should not cause an abnormal body function, such as bleeding into the joint 13 NSAIDs not interfere with the effectiveness of loop diuretics; therefore, the nurse would not question administering the Motrin COX-2 inhibitors not interfere with the effectiveness of cardiac glycosides; therefore, the nurse would not question administering the Relafen Aspirin displaces warfarin from proteinbinding sites and will increase the client’s bleeding; therefore, the nurse should question administering the aspirin Toradol is often administered around the clock to a client in pain, along with a narcotic analgesic Toradol decreases the inflammation to help decrease the pain 14 Alcohol displaces warfarin from proteinbinding sites and will increase the client’s bleeding; therefore, the nurse should instruct the client not to drink alcohol ASA poisoning can kill children, and all medications, prescription or nonprescription, should be kept out of the reach of children High doses of ASA can cause bleeding; therefore, the dentist should be made aware of the client’s medication use Aspirin toxicity can occur when the client is taking ASA four to five times a day; therefore, the serum level should be kept within normal limits (15–30 mg/dL) Mild toxicity occurs with serum levels above 30 mg/dL and severe toxicity occurs above 50 mg/dL Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) is a sign of aspirin toxicity and should be reported to the health-care provider 15 Enteric-coated aspirin should not be crushed The charge nurse should not correct the primary nurse in front of other staff and, at 0900, there would be other nurses in the medication room The charge nurse should explain to the primary nurse that enteric-coated ASA should not be crushed because the coating that ensures the ASA will dissolve only in the small intestine, where the coating dissolves The aspirin will be absorbed in the stomach if the coating is crushed Because the client did not receive the crushed enteric-coated ASA, no adverse occurrence report needs to be completed This form is completed if the client’s condition has been compromised in some way 16 This medication is being administered for the hands; therefore, the client should not wash off the medication immediately after application The client should know that transient burning occurs with the application The client should not apply heat because this will increase the burning of the skin secondary to the cream application Burning is increased by heat, sweating, bathing in warm water, humidity, and clothing The topical cream should be kept in place at least 30 minutes after application because it is being administered for osteoarthritis of the hands If not being applied for hands, the cream should be washed off immediately 17 These medications are administered around the clock and are not specifically for acute pain Aspirin has side effects, such as gastrointestinal discomfort, and is not the drug of choice for elderly clients Acetaminophen is generally preferred for use in older clients because it has fewer toxic side effects Morphine is a narcotic, is not used to treat chronic arthritis pain, and should be used cautiously in elderly clients 18 The first intervention the nurse should implement is to determine if the client is taking any medication that will interact with the herb Ginkgo, along with dong quai, feverfew, and garlic, when taken with NSAIDs may cause bleeding Gingko is used to treat allergic rhinitis, Alzheimer’s disease, anxiety or stress, dementia, tinnitus, vertigo, and poor circulation It is not known to decrease inflammation The nurse should determine what medications the client is currently taking and if gingko interacts with them prior to notifying the HCP The nurse does not need to know why the client thought he or she needed to take the herb; this is an accusatory intervention 221 3905_Ch08_213-234 22/01/14 10:22 AM Page 222 222 PHARMACOLOGY SUCCESS The nurse should support alternative-type medicine if it does not interfere with other medications the client is currently taking MEDICATION MEMORY JOGGER: Some herbal preparations are effective, some are not, and a few can be harmful or even deadly If a client is taking an herbal supplement and a conventional medicine, the nurse should investigate to determine if the combination will cause harm to the client The nurse should always be the client’s advocate 19 Resting the knee after the injection is an appropriate action for the client to take It would not warrant intervention by the nurse Physical therapy for range-of-motion exercises is an acceptable conservative treatment for osteoarthritis The client should inform the physical therapist of the treatment, but this statement does not warrant immediate intervention by the nurse Alternating ice and heat is an acceptable conservative treatment for easing the pain secondary to osteoarthritis This statement would not warrant intervention by the nurse This procedure does provide marked pain relief, but it should not be done more than every 4–6 months because it can hasten the rate of cartilage breakdown This statement should be reported to the HCP Clients often go to more than one HCP 20 Iron preparations can cause black, tarry stool, but because the client is taking an NSAID the nurse should realize tarry stools are a sign of gastrointestinal distress, which is a complication of NSAID medications NSAIDs are notorious for causing gastrointestinal upset and peptic ulcer disease Black, tarry stool indicates GI bleeding; therefore, the client should stop taking the medication A specimen is not sent to the laboratory when the stool is black and tarry The nurse should know these are signs of GI bleeding This is not an expected side effect of the medication, and the NSAID should be discontinued immediately MEDICATION MEMORY JOGGER: If the client verbalizes a complaint, if the nurse assesses data, or if laboratory data indicates an adverse effect secondary to a medication, the nurse must intervene The nurse must implement an independent intervention or notify the health-care provider because medications can result in serious or even life-threatening complications A Client With Renal Osteoporosis 21 The client should swallow the medication The client should not crush, chew, or suck on the medication The medication should be taken on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking any liquid Foods and beverages greatly decrease the effect of Fosamax The medication should be taken on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking any liquid Foods and beverages greatly decrease the effect of Fosamax The medication will irritate the stomach and esophagus if the client lies down; therefore, the medication should be taken when the client can remain upright for at least 30 minutes first thing in the morning This client must remain upright to facilitate the passage of the medication to the stomach and minimize the risk of esophageal irritation 22 Nausea and vomiting occur during the initial therapy and will disappear as the treatment continues; therefore, the client does not need to notify the HCP The client should consume an adequate amount of calcium and vitamin D while taking this medication The nasal spray should be room temperature before using The nasal spray is not kept in the refrigerator Rhinitis, a runny nose, is the most common side effect with calcitonin nasal spray, but the client should not quit taking the medication if this occurs 23 Evista increases the risk of venous thrombosis; therefore, the client should avoid prolonged immobilization including driving long distances in a car The client should not just decrease smoking and alcohol The client needs to stop both of these activities because they interact with the medication Evista will not reduce hot flashes or flushes associated with estrogen deficiency and may cause hot flashes 3905_Index_471-488 22/01/14 10:39 AM Page 474 474 INDEX Carisoprodol (Soma), 213, 219, 434, 452 Carvedilol (Coreg), 438 Cascara, 381, 385 Catapres
