Variability of Drug Therapy
Variability of Drug Therapy
Variability of Drug Therapy
- Create a PowerPoint presentation that is a slide show
- APA 7th ed. formatted title slide
- Identify and introduce the lifespan you will be focusing on, to include why this lifespan could be impacted by the variability (for example in neonates, the liver is immature).
- Identify and explain the variability you will be focusing on
- Identify and explain a medication you will focus on (pharmacotherapeutics)
- Discuss pharmacokinetics as it relates to your selected lifespan. For example, how is an older adult with hypertension affected by the variability you selected, when taking calcium channel blockers?
- Include the consequences of the variability’s effect on the lifespan- for example, if there is impaired excretion, will there be drug accumulation?
- Present an action you, as a RN, would take, or suggest taking, to address the consequences of the variability
- Identify at least two education points to include for this patient population related to the medication and the identified variability
- Identify lab values that would need to be monitored in your identified lifespan, to include reference range used at your organization
- Briefly summarize the medication, the lifespan and the variability
- Include at least 2 scholarly studies for support during the presentation – reference slide, APA 7th ed formatted
- Presentation should be 12 – 16 slides long
- Attach a transcript of your presentation, use the closed caption tool, or ensure your slides have notes discussing each slide
