Pharmacology and the Nursing Process by Linda Lane Lilley: Practice Exam

Bosentan (Tracleer) is specifically indicated for the treatment of:

1. Asthma

2. Pulmonary artery hypertension

3. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

4. Venous thromboembolism

The correct answer is: Pulmonary artery hypertension

Bosentan (Tracleer) is a medication that is specifically used for the treatment of pulmonary artery hypertension. This condition is a type of high blood pressure that affects the arteries in the lungs and can lead to serious health complications. Option A, Asthma, is not correct because asthma is a separate condition that affects the airways. Option C, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), is also incorrect because COPD is a progressive lung disease that affects breathing. Option D, Venous Thromboembolism, is not correct because this is a condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in the veins, and not directly related to pulmonary artery hypertension. Therefore, the only correct option is B, which is pulmonary artery hypertension.
