How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help
guide the PMHNP in selecting medication for clients? -
Answer>> Genetic testing can assist by providing
more information on how clients may respond to
certain psychotropic medications, as well as providing
information on how a client may break down and
metabolize medications based on the cytochrome P450
system.

There may be an environmental exposure that turned a
gene "on" that should have been "off" for one twin to
develop schizophrenia and not the other


. Both environmental and psychosocial stressors can
impact mental health. Although twins may have
identical genes, their gene expression may be different.

Neuroscience - Answer>> is the study of the structure
and function of the brain and is a field which is making
great advancements (Pliszka, 2016). A strong
foundational understanding of neuroscience and how
the structure and function of the brain can result in
mental health symptoms is necessary to treat mental
illnesses.

, Some mental disorders such as Alzheimer's disease,
schizophrenia, and major depressive disorder are
thought to be a result of malformations or malfunctions
within the brain.

The psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner
(PMHNP) must comprehend how medications impact
the brain in order to safely and effectively prescribe
psychotropic medications.

Brain tissue - Answer>> is composed of gray and
white matter.

gray matter - Answer>> The cerebellum, cerebrum,
brain stem, and the butterfly-shaped portion of the
central spinal cord are comprised of gray matter which
contains neural cell bodies, axon terminals, dendrites,
and all nerve synapses.

psychiatry and neurology.

Gray matter - Answer>> associated with learning.

Changes in the gray matter are linked to psychiatric
diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia,
and major depressive disorder.

White Matter - Answer>> contains nerve fibers that
connect neurons from different regions into functional
circuits.


The myelin that coats neuronal axons is necessary for
electrical impulse transmission.
