The nurse is preparing to administer a prescribed aminoglycoside. Which of the following laboratory test results should the nurse review before administering the medication?
I hope you will rate my answer positively ----
Before prescribing the drug aminoglycosides , nurse should asses the creatinine levels, kidney function test, because kidney is primarily responsible for elimination of aminoglycosides. so, that if patient is suffering from any renal disease the doses should be decreased to prevent from toxicity. Before giving the doses, the patient should warn about tinnitus and adverse reactions like nephrotoxicity ,urine output, ototoxicity , etc.
Thankyou.
