Chapter 5, Problem 4CCS
21-Year-Old Female with Skeletal Injuries
While riding her bike to campus, 21-year-old Liliana Rose was struck by a car. Examination in the Emergency Department reveals several injuries. Relative to her integumentary system, the following comments are noted on her chart:
•Epidermal abrasions of the right lateral upper arm and anterior shoulder.
•A deep, 2-cm laceration extending vertically on right lateral cheek and a horizontal 1-cm laceration on the temple.
•Cyanosis is apparent in her nail beds and lips.
The lacerated areas are cleaned, sutured (stitched), and bandaged by the emergency room (ER) personnel.
4. NCLEX-STYLE Liliana's cyanosis is clinically significant because:
a. It indicates that she has less hemoglobin reaching her lips and fingers.
b. It indicates that her blood is low in oxygen.
c. It indicates that there are more melanocytes developing in her lips and fingers.
d. It indicates a buildup of bilirubin in her epidermis.

Students have asked these similar questions
a. What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent.
b. What will happen to elimination of the drug in the previous question if the system is saturated? explain and show any math involved
If you wanted to reduce the difference between peak and trough levels that occur with repeated administration of a drug, how would you adjust the dose and dose interval without changing the plateau concentration (plateau is the average of peak and trough levels)? Select your answers for both dose and interval. Hint: It may be helpful to think about this problem using an example such as food. How would you eat if you wanted to maintain very steady hunger/satiety levels without changing your total caloric intake?
Options:
A. Dose; Increase dose
B. Dose; Decrease dose
C. Dose; Do not change dose
D. Interval; Increase the interval between doses (give the drug less frequently)
E. Interval; Decrease the interval between doses (give the drug more frequently)
F. Interval; Do not change the interval
What percentage of a drug is eliminated after 4 half-lives? Please round to the nearest percent. Show the math
