A nurse is preparing to titrate morphine 6 mg via IV bolus to a client. The amount available is morphine 8 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
A nurse is preparing to administer dextrose 5% in water (D5W) IV to infuse at 100 mL/hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 15 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
A nurse is preparing to administer 0. 9% sodium chloride IV infusion 1-L bag at a rate of 200 mL/hr for a client who has rhabdomyolysis. The nurse should expect the IV pump to infuse over how many hours? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
5 hr
Correct Rationale: STEP 1: What is the unit of measurement the nurse should calculate? hr STEP 2: What is the volume the nurse should infuse? 1000 mL
STEP 3: What is the total infusion time? 200 mL/hr
A nurse is preparing to administer ceftriaxone 1 g via intermittent IV bolus over 30 min. Available is 1 g ceftriaxone sodium in 100 mL dextrose 5% in water. The nurse should set the pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
1. A nurse is preparing to administer 0.45% sodium chloride (NaCl) 1000 mL IV to infuse over 8 hr. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero)
2. A nurse is preparing to infuse 1 liter of 0.9% sodium chloride IV over 8 hr with a tubing set that delivers 15 gtts/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many drops/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
