Answer 1

7, Before mixing two medication in one syringe nurse should determine the total volume of two medication to be added in a syringe and volume applicable for administration site.
8, Metabolic syndrome discovered in 1920 that associated with hypertension and diabetes mellitus, gout and obesity. Obesity and insulin resistance is a factor for metabolic syndrome.

13, Tablet that cannot be crushed are modified release medicine like verapamil, enteric coated tablets like diclofenac e/c, sugar-coated medicine like ibuprofen, steroids like methotrexate.
14, Alpha, beta1, and beta2 are the adrenergic receptors found in the autonomic system.
15, Check Blood pressure, pulse rate, and ECG before and during the administration of medicine.
16, Patients with preexisting cardiac disease abrupt discontinuation of beta-adrenergic blocking agents cause myocardial ischemia, and infarction and hypertension. Do not use atenolol if the patient has beta blocker hypersensitivity.
17, Hypoventilation is a respiratory depression in terms of respiratory rate when the lung cannot ventilate and there is inadequate gas exchange. The respiratory rate will be less than 12 breaths per minute.
