Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: A tethered PHR is inextricably linked to a single entity or health system. Through a secure connection, select elements of the EHR can be accessed such as medication lists, test results, visit history and after-visit summaries. Additional functionality may be provided with a tethered PHR, such as online medication refills or secure messaging with a provider or health care team. In essence, these tools are the patient-facing component of the EHR.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors.
