The Medication Paper Final Draft “Byvalson”

 paper must be a minimum of seven pages, not including your title or reference pages. You should include at least five recent references (published within the last five years), and the paper must be presented in APA format (see rough draft requirements in week 6).

The paper must include the following content information:

  • Manufacturing company
  • Brand name
  • Indication
  • First in class, or not first in class
  • Common side effects profile
  • Known contradictions

Make sure you explain the special considerations that your chosen drug has on the unique populations/client groups listed below. Special considerations should include absorption, clearance/elimination, distribution, metabolism half-life, loading dose, route of drug administration, and steady state.

Pediatric Patients

Pediatric patients are not little adults. There are special pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics variations in this patient group. Their reaction to medication can be very unpredictable. Accurate dosing is the key due to their limited body mass.

Geriatric Patients

Geriatric patients have altered pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics responses to medication. The process of aging and disease will change how the body responds to drug therapy. Memory limitations and increased sensitivity to drug therapy may cause unique problems with this population.

Patients With Renal Dysfunction

Many medications are excreted through the renal glands or metabolized and excreted renally. Dosage adjustment is the key in this population. Many agents may cause nephrotoxicity.

Patients With Liver Dysfunction

Liver disease produces alterations in the physiology of the drugs’ pharmacokinetics in the body. Special attention should be given to all drugs used in this client population

Obese Patients

Obese patients have alterations in their pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic response to medication. Many comorbidities and altered nutritional status can be seen as responses to taking these medications. Accurate dosing is paramount.

Pregnancy/Lactation

Pregnancy and lactation can be challenging. Concerns of effects to the unborn fetus must be considered. Will treating the mother harm the unborn fetus or nursing infant?

Case Study, Chapter 8, Overview of Genetics and Genomics in Nursing

1. A patient who is 38 years of age is diagnosed with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, a hereditary disease that results in fluid-filled cysts occupying space in the kidneys. The cysts can interfere with the function of the kidney and may burst and cause bleeding inside the kidney. The patient with polycystic kidney disease may or may not have a berry aneurysm of a blood vessel in the brain that could lead to bleeding and death, cysts on the ovaries, and a mitral valve prolapse (in females) that can lead to dysrhythmias (irregular heart rhythms), or diverticula (outpouching of the bowel) that are susceptible to infection and inflammation and may lead to gastrointestinal bleeding. The patient is susceptible to retaining fluid in the abdomen so the abdomen is large to constipation, and to hypertension. There is no cure for the disease. The patient receives supportive care for the various symptoms or complications the patient may have. 

  1. When explaining to the patient and family about polycystic kidney disease, the nurse should explain what characteristics about an autosomal dominant genetic disease?
  2. How does variable expression of genetic characteristics play a role in the course of polycystic kidney disease and how can the nurse further predict the level of the disease?
  3. Identify the roles of the nurse in integrating genetics in the nursing care provided for the patient.

2. Mr. Wayne is a 38-year-old man with a significant family history of elevated cholesterol levels. His father died at age 42 from a massive heart attack secondary to elevated cholesterol and triglycerides, and two of his older siblings are currently taking medications to lower their cholesterol levels. Mr. Wayne makes an appointment to discuss his risk for hypercholesterolemia. The nurse recognizes that Mr. Wayne is at risk for familial hypercholesterolemia because this is an autosomal dominant inherited condition.

  1. Describe the pattern of autosomal dominant inheritance.
  2. Mr. Wayne asks what chance his children have of developing familial hypercholesterolemia. How should the nurse respond?
  3. Explain the phenomenon of penetrance observed in autosomal dominant inheritance.

Calculating Odds Ratio

/in /by

     

Calculating Odds   Ratio

Data can be qualitative or quantitative. Qualitative data is helpful to generate a hypothesis and gather information if little is known about an expected association. Focus groups, key informant interviews, and case studies are types of qualitative data collection methods used to identify common themes from which to build a hypothesis. Quantitative data collection and analysis is used to test a hypothesis and make comparisons to determine the direction and strength of a potential association. The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is cross-sectional panel survey used to collect quantitative data on adult behaviors and risk factors. It is one of the largest U.S. health data collection efforts. The data can be used to analyze associations on a state or country level. Follow the steps to obtain a 2×2 contingency table (also known as a “cross tabulation”) crossing binge drinking with depression.

1. Retrieve the “BRFSS Web-Enabled Analysis Tool” resource provided in the Topic Materials.

2. Select “Cross Tabulation.”

3. Select “2015” for the year.

4. Select “Arizona” for the state.

5. Select “Alcohol Consumption: Binge drinkers (males having five or more drinks on one occasion, females having four or more drinks on one occasion)” for Step 2 Select Row.

6. Select “Chronic Health Conditions: Ever diagnosed with a depressive disorder, including depression, major depression, dysthymia, or minor depression” for Step 3 Select Column.

7. Skip Steps 4 and 5.

8. Select “Sample Size” for Step 6 Select Statistics and run the report for the cross tabulation.

Part 1

Using the data from the cross tabulation results, calculate the odds ratio for depression among those exposed to binge drinking. Interpret the odds ratio and discuss if the odds ratio is a good estimate of the relative risk in this situation. Why or why not? Show your 2×2 table and all calculations. Present or describe the formula you used to arrive at your answer.

Part 2

Use the Topic Material, “BRFSS Web-Enabled Analysis Tool,” located on the CDC website, and run a report for two variables of interest to you. Create a 2×2 table and calculate the odds ratio for this association. Interpret the odds ratio and discuss the public health importance of the association. Show your 2×2 table. Present or describe the formula you used to arrive at your answer.

Refer to the “Creating a 2×2 Contingency Table” resource for guidance in creating 2×2 contingency tables.

Calculation Quiz

/in /by

 

Getting Started

Pharmacy calculations are very important for prescribing, especially in regards to renal function and pediatric dosing. This assignment will focus on calculating renal function and medication doses for pediatric patients. Review the information below and then follow the subsequent instructions.

Upon successful completion of the course material, you will be able to:

  • Successfully calculate dosing for renal functions

Background Information

Renal function

Renal function can be calculated different ways but the most common ways are using the Cockcroft-Gault and CKD-EPI equations (see below). If adjustments to dosing are required due to decreased renal function, it is important to know which equation should be used. This can be found in a drug reference or the package insert for a particular medication. In general, if renal cutoffs are expressed as mL/min the Cockcroft-Gault equation should be used but if renal cutoffs are expressed in mL/min/1.73m2 then the CKD-EPI equation should be used. Different equations are necessary to calculate renal function in the pediatric population.

The Cockcroft-Gault equation is as follows:

  • CrCl = [(140-age) (ideal body weight)]/[(72) (SCr)] x 0.85 (if female)
    • age is expressed in years
    • weight is expressed in kg [ideal body weight (IBW) should be used except for obese patients, in which case adjusted body weight is typically used]
    • SCr is serum creatinine expressed in mg/dL
    • IBW (male) = 50kg + 2.3 kg for each inch of height over 5 feet
    • IBW (female) = 45.5kg + 2.3 kg for each inch of height over 5 feet
    • Adjusted body weight = IBW + [0.4 x (actual body weight – IBW)]

The CKD-EPI equation is as follows:

  • eGFR = 141 x min(SCr/κ, 1)α x max(SCr /κ, 1)-1.209 x 0.993Age x 1.018 [if female] x 1.159 [if Black]
    • eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) = mL/min/1.73 m2
    • SCr is serum creatinine expressed in mg/dL
    • κ = 0.7 (females) or 0.9 (males)
    • α = -0.329 (females) or -0.411 (males)
    • min = indicates the minimum of SCr/κ or 1
    • max = indicates the maximum of SCr/κ or 1
    • age = years

Pediatric Dosing

In general, medication dosing for pediatric patients is based on weight. This makes it particularly important to be able to calculate doses appropriately. The most basic calculation is dose (ie. mg/kg) times weight (in kg).

Example

  • Cefdinir (Omnicef®) for acute otitis media is 14 mg/kg/day in 1-2 divided doses
    • What would the recommended dose be for a 22 lb patient?
    • First, lbs must be converted to kg.
      • 22 lb x (1 kg/2.2 lb) = 10 kg
    • Now, the dose can be calculated.
      • 14 mg/kg x 10 kg = 140 mg
    • Based on the dosing recommendation above, this could be given 2 different ways:
      • 140 mg once daily
      • 70 mg two times daily

For liquids or suspensions, medication doses are often given as the volume to be given to the patient. One must be aware of the available concentrations for a particular medication.

Example

  • Cefdinir (Omnicef®) is available in the following concentrations:
    • 125 mg/5 mL
    • 250 mg/5 mL
  • Using the example above, how many mL would be needed for 140 mg daily?
    • [140 mg / 125 mg] x 5 mL = 5.6 mL
    • [140 mg / 250 mg] x 5 mL = 2.8 mL
    • Often, we have to round to the nearest 0.5 mL to make it easier to administer using an oral syringe. Rounding the first option to 5.5 mL would give the patient 137.5 mg (5.5 mL x 125 mg/ 5 mL)
