1 NR 293 Pharmacology Pharmacology Module and Active Learning Activity NR293 Pharmacology Active Learning Activity V3 Revised : 04/2020 11 Purpose To expand understanding and application pharmacologic concepts using media tutorials, NCLEX style test questions, and integration of these concepts to support critical thinking. Course outcomes : This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcome s: CO1 : Apply the concepts of pharmacotherapeutics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacogenomics to the use of specific medication classifications in specific health conditions and in consideration of medication side /adverse effects, nursing implications, and medication teaching. (POs 1, 2, and 3) CO2 : Apply principles of health promotion, as well as illness and injury prevention, to promote safety and effectiveness of commonly used pharmacologic therapy across the li fespan, taking into consideration sociocultural, genetic/genomic, developmental, and gender implications. (POs 3 and 8) CO3 : Utilize the nursing process in understanding the effects of drug therapy on health outcomes across the lifespan within the framewor k of a diverse population of individuals, families, and communities. (PO 4) CO4 : Examine the professional nursing roles of care manager, educator, researcher, and advocate in relation to pharmacologic therapy and within the framework of a diverse populatio n of individuals, families, and communities. (POs 6 and 7) Due date : Your faculty member will inform you when this assignment is due . The Late Assignment Policy applies to this assignment. Total points possible: 50 points Preparing the assignment Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions. 1. Log into ATI and select the “Learn” tab. Click on “Pharmacology Made Easy.” In the box that opens, select the following modules to be completed i n the weeks they are assigned . Each module and post quiz is worth up to 25 points (25 points/50%) : • Introduction to Pharmacology and 25 -item quiz • Neurologic system and 25 -item quiz • Cardiovascular system and 25 -item quiz • Endocrine System and 25 -item quiz 2. Actual points earned will be based on the percentage earned on first attempt multiplied by total points possible. • Example: The assignment is worth 25 points, and you get 50% of the que stions correct, you will earn 12.5 rounded to 13 points (50% X 25 divid ed by 100% = 12.5 rounded to 13 ). • If you score less than 79% on the first attempt, you must submit a 150 word reflection on three clinical points that can be used in nursing practice using information from the module ( if reflection not submitted, you will no t receive points for additional attempts). • You may retake the module and test once , after a 24 -hour lock -out between attempts to score additional points as follows (Note: total score with additional points cannot be greater than 100%): Additional percentag e s core (based on second attempt). Score between 90 -100%, gain an additional 5% to first score. Score between 79 -89%, gain an additional 3% to first score . • Obtain the Active Learning Templates (ALTs) titled “Medication” and “System Disorder” from your ATI Account. 2 NR 293 Pharmacology Pharmacology Module and Active Learning Activity NR293 Pharmacology Active Learning Activity V3 Revised : 04/2020 21 3. Complete one ALT for the selected drug classes and one ALT for the associated system disorder : • Week 1 sele ct an anti -infective medication and associated system disorder (i.e. penicillin and pneumonia) . • Week 3 select a neurologic medication and associated system disorder . • Week 5 select a cardiovascular medication and associated system disorder . • Week 6 select an endocrine medication and associated system disorder. 4. Include the following sections for each Medication ALT (examples are available below ). (8 points/ 16 %) • Medication - Medication Type • Category Class - Drug class • Expected Pharmacological Action • Therapeutic Uses • Complications • Medication Administration • Contraindications • Nursing Interventions • Interactions • Evaluation o f Medication Effectiveness • Client Education 5. Select a disease process that the selected medication treats. Be sure that you have not previously completed a systems disorder ALT for this disease process. (8 points/16 %) a.

Expected Findings 3. Laboratory Tests 4. Diagnostic Procedures v. Patient -Centered Care 1. Medications 6. Write an analysis describing how the selected medication class relates to t he selected systems disorder. (6 points/12 %) • 300 words minimum. • A strong connection and correlation are made between the selected medication and disease process. • Be prepared to present and/or submit your templates and analysis. 7. Your work will be evaluated on the following criteria. (3 points/ 6%) • Fewer than three unique errors in grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and/or spelling are present. • Information is handwritten and legible. • APA (current edition ) formatting used with in -text citations and references when applicable.
