Morphine Scenario Bill is a 55 -year-old male who has been admitted with chest pain after a care accident. According to the chest Xray, Bill has 3 fractured ribs on the left side. He has been ordered Morphine$$2\mathrm{mg}$$IM every 2 hours for pain. He has heard a lot about opioid addiction, and he is nervous that he will get addicted and so he wants to hear more about the medication before he gets it.

As the nurse, you are tasked with administering the first dose and educating the patient on the medication. As a group discuss the questions and be prepared to share with your classmates. Questions What is the medication being administered?

Why are you giving the medication? How can you phrase it so that the patient will feel more comfortable taking the medication? What information do you need to collect from the patient prior to administration?

What other things do you need to check before giving the medication? Does this medication come in a single dose or multi-dose vial? How will you administer it? What site will you use to administer it and why?

What type of syringe will you use? What size needle will you use? What is the gauge of the needle? What other items will you need to educate Mr. Jones on regarding her new medication?

Study the diagrams below and answer the auestinne 3.1.1 a) Which skin (A or B) will have a higher temperature? b) Give a reason for your answer in question 3.1.1. a). c) Give the term to describe the state of blood capillaries in B. 3.1.2 Give ONE reason why the body temperature of a person has to be kept constant. 3.1.3 An athlete is running$$1500\mathrm{m}$$during a competition at 13:00.

Describe another homeostatic mechanism in the skin that will counteract the increase in his body temperature. 2 One characteristic of all living organisms is that they are irritable. They can sense changes in the environment, interpret the changes and react accordingly.

3.2.1 Name the part in the human body that a) senses changes in the environment. b) conducts the message to the central nervous system. 3.2.2 Draw a labeled diagram of the neuron that conducts impulses from the central nervous system to the effectors. Indicate the direction of an impulse in the neuron by using an arrow.

3.3 The diagram below represents a phase during meiosis in a female human body. Only four pairs of the chromosomes are represented in the diagram namely pairs$$18,19,20$$and$$21.$$3.3.1 Give the term for each of the following descriptions: a) The meiotic process in a female during which an ovum is produced. b) A pair of chromosomes such as number$$18.$$3.3.2 Identify the phase visible in the diagram. 3.3.3 Motivate your answer in question 3.3.2. 3.2.4 Give the term used to describe the abnormal process that occurs at chromosome pair 21 in this diagram.

3.3.5 How many chromosomes will each of the four gametes have after this meiotic division process? 3.3.6 a) If an ovum with an extra chromosome of this kind mentioned in question$$\mathrm{3.3.5}$$is fertilized by a normal sperm it can lead to a certain type of trisomy.

Give the name of the defect this type of trisomy causes in humans. b) Name THREE distinct features of a person with the disorder mentioned in question

C. the first glucosyl unit in a new glycogen polymer is added to the tyrosine residue of glycogenin D. the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate traps the glucose molecule in the muscle cell E. the active form of glycogen synthase is phosphorylated 4. Dietary carbohydrate enters the blood from the small intestinal epithelial cells by A. facilitated diffusion by sodium-dependent glucose transport proteins B. active transport C. diffusion D. osmosis

5. The following are correct regarding roles of carbohydrate in metabolism except A. carbohydrate stored as glycogen is the dominant energy substrate for vigorous intensity exercise B. adequate carbohydrate provides sufficient concentrations of TCA (Krebs) cycle intermediates. C. glycogen depletion during prolonged high intensity exercise is associated with increased performance, decreased [free fatty acids] and increased blood [glucose]. D. carbohydrate is the preferred energy substrate for the central nervous system E. absorption of dietary carbohydrates occurs in the upper sections (duodenum and jejunum) of the small intestine.
