Description

    Psychological disorders, such as depression, bipolar, and anxiety disorders can present several complications for patients of all ages. These disorders affect patients physically and emotionally, potentially impacting judgment, school and/or job performance, and relationships with family and friends. Since these disorders have many drastic effects on patients’ lives, it is important for advanced practice nurses to effectively manage patient care. With patient factors and medical history in mind, it is the advanced practice nurse’s responsibility to ensure the safe and effective diagnosis, treatment, and education of patients with psychological disorder.


To Prepare
  • Review the Resources for this module and consider the principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
  • Reflect on your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practices from the last 5 years and think about how pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors altered his or her anticipated response to a drug.
  • Consider factors that might have influenced the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes, such as genetics (including pharmacogenetics), gender, ethnicity, age, behavior, and/or possible pathophysiological changes due to disease.
  • Think about a personalized plan of care based on these influencing factors and patient history with GAD.
By Day 3 of Week 8

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
Principles of Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are two distinct ideas that must be considered
when healthcare practitioners administer pharmaceuticals for a certain illness procedure and a
particular age bracket. Pharmacokinetics is concerned with the intake, transport, metabolism, and
elimination of medications; pharmacodynamics is concerned with the biochemical, cellular, and
physiological impacts of pharmaceuticals and their modes of action. The aged population has
changed biological physiology, which alters how drugs are absorbed, metabolized, and excreted,
leading to a detrimental or beneficial impact of the drug. Therefore, it is critical to grasp these
ideas to handle this fragile group effectively and safely. In other terms, Pharmacok...
