    Sick Cat Lab

    The cat Jasper is a male cat that was given an over-the-counter analgesic which had caused him to keep getting sicker. He is one years old and weighs seven pounds, five ounces. His symptoms included vomiting and having diarrhea for several days. His lab tests showed a metabolic acidosis meaning there was too much acid in his body fluid. This meant Jasper could have been given acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen. To identify what analgesic Jasper was given we took samples of the different analgesics and crushed them. We used a melting point apparatus to find out what the melting point was and matched it with acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen. Then we used the Infrared Spectroscopy to determine the function group of the molecules to help us identify which analgesic was used. Between the symptoms, melting point, and results of the infrared spectroscopy we were able to identify what analgesic Jasper ingested.…

    St John's Wart Research Paper

    Naproxen sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug or NSAID, possesses analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects. Naproxen sodium was added to Jeff’s plan of care to treat his chronic back pain. NSAIDs are absorbed through the GI tract and decreases pain by reversibly blocking cyclooxygenase which inhibits the formation of prostaglandins. Naproxen sodium has an onset of 30 minutes and duration of approximately seven hours (Sutton, 1996). Jeff should be educated to avoid drinking alcohol and taking aspirin while on this medication as well as to avoid taking other meds such as ibuprofen or other meds similar to naproxen which could cause an overdose. Medications that Jeff is currently taking that could cause a drug interaction…

    Pain: a Balance Between Analgesia and Side Effects

    The concepts of this theory are the balance between analgesia and side effects, pain, and side effects themselves. Opioid analgesics often have very unpleasant side effects, so the end result is often patients taking less medication than they actually need, which results in pain not being effectively relieved. The combination of potent analgesics, pharmacological and non-pharmacological adjuvants can allow for the pain relief needed and also help minimize or eliminate unwanted side effects. Nurses can work with the patient to educate them on the side effects of potent medication and help them set realistic goals. This will entail working with both the patient and physician to achieve the results desired.…
