About this ebook
The Test Bank for Pharmacology for Nurses: A Pathophysiologic Approach by Michael Adams, Norman Holland, and Shanti Chang is structurally organized into 9 major units spanning 50 chapters. Instead of focusing on drugs in isolation, the textbook aligns pharmacology with specific therapeutic goals, body systems, and underlying disease states. [1, 2, 3, 4]
The broad units and topics covered in this edition include:
  • Core Concepts in Pharmacology: Foundational science including drug regulations, pharmacokinetics (how the body processes drugs), and pharmacodynamics (how drugs change the body).
  • Pharmacology and the Nurse-Patient Relationship: Safe medication administration, dosage calculations, medication errors, lifespan considerations, cultural influences, and alternative therapies.
  • The Nervous System: Autonomic nervous system drugs, medications for anxiety and insomnia, seizures, neurodegenerative disorders, behavior/mood disorders, and pain management.
  • The Cardiovascular and Urinary Systems: Agents treating hypertension, heart failure, dysrhythmias, coagulation disorders, renal failure, and fluid/electrolyte imbalances.
  • The Immune System: Drugs for inflammation, fever, allergies, immune disorders, cancer chemotherapy, and infectious diseases (antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals).
  • The Respiratory System: Medications treating asthma, COPD, allergic rhinitis, and common respiratory infections.
  • The Gastrointestinal System: Therapeutics for peptic ulcer disease, bowel disorders, nausea, vomiting, and nutritional status.
  • The Endocrine System: Drugs management for diabetes mellitus, thyroid conditions, pituitary/adrenal disorders, and reproductive health.
  • The Integumentary System, Eyes, and Ears: Topical therapies, medications for skin disorders, glaucoma, and ocular/otic infections. [1, 2, 3]
