Digoxin Nursing Pharmacology NCLEX Mnemonic | Mechanism of Action, Toxicity, Side Effects

Digoxin nursing pharmacology (NCLEX) mnemonic covering mechanism of action, toxicity, and side effects.
Study this Digoxin Nursing Pharmacology mnemonic for NCLEX and other mnemonics with Pixorize.
Digoxin is a cardiac glycoside that works by increasing the strength of the heart’s contractions and slowing down the heart rate. It is used clinically to treat atrial fibrillation and heart failure. Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic range, and side effects are seen above dose levels of 2 ng/mL. The risk of toxicity is increased with hypokalemia, so patients should have their potassium levels monitored closely. The earliest sign of digoxin toxicity is GI distress, and later signs include bradycardia, vision changes, and arrhythmias. The apical pulse should be monitored for a full minute before administration, and the digoxin dose should not be given if the heart rate is less than 60 minutes beat per minute.

One suggestion: u could show banana peel at ground To hint if player steps on those bananas they will slip ( meaning if k drops then toxicity will happen ) , 🤭 , I love pixorize , I even make my own picmonics to help me remember like this ,

I'm confused here. Won't digoxin cause HYPERkalemia ?? Instead of hypokalemia ?? (BTW love your videos, they're always on point ❤)

[@oneluv79]

They said hypo..

[@thedreamer3427]

It does cause hyperkalemia, since it's primary mechanism of action involves blocking of Na K pump, K can't enter the cell, therefore causing hyperkalemia. It does not cause hyperkalemia. If the patient is hypokalemic, the action of digoxin gets easier, therefore can cause digoxin toxicity. Hypokalemia triggers digoxin toxicity.

[@Ayemeee]

They didn’t say it causes hypokalemia. Just that toxicity will increase if the Pt already has hypokalemia

[@Red_Keeper]

@@Ayemeee I got that part confused. Thanks

[@spiracticaldoctor7197]

wao

[@christopherleubner6633]

Bad with high potassium, can cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, bradycardia and death.

[@hrw1936]

Bad with low potassium.
