Pharmacology and Nursing Process
Pharmacokinetics
- Half-life: time required for half of a given drug to be removed from the body
- Measures the rate at which the drug is eliminated from the body
- After approximately five half-lives, most drugs are considered to be effectively removed from the body
- Steady state: physiologic state in which the amount of drug removed via elimination is equal to amount of drug absorbed with each dose
Pharmacotherapeutics
- Acute therapy: intensive therapy drug treatment for acutely ill or critically ill patients
- Maintenance therapy: treatment for chronic illnesses such as hypertension
- Supplemental therapy: supplies the body with a substance needed to maintain normal function
- Palliative therapy: focuses on providing patients with relief from symptoms of pain and stress of a serious illness
- Supportive therapy: maintains the integrity of body functions while the patient is recovering from illness or trauma
