A client scheduled for a stress echocardiogram is to receive an IV infusion of Dextrose 5% in
Water (D5W) with dobutamine (Dobutrex) 0.5 grams/250 ml at a rate of 1,200 mcg/minute. The
nurse should program the infusion pump to deliver how many ml/hour? (Enter numeric value
only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest whole number.) - Answer>>> 36
First calculate the number of mcg/hour: 1,200 x 60 minutes = 72,000 mcg/hour Next calculate
the number of ml/hour needed to administer 72,000 mcg/hour500,000 mcg : 250 ml :: 72,000
mcg : X500,,000 :: 250 / X500,000X = 18,000,000X = 36 ml/hour
The nurse is preparing a tube feeding of Ensure 280 ml (50% solution). Full strength Ensure is
available in a 240 ml can. The nurse should use how many ml of Ensure to prepare the feeding?
(Enter numeric value for only. If rounding is required, round to nearest whole number.) -
Answer>>> Using the formula D/H (Desired % / % on Hand) x Total volume desired:
50/100 x 280ml = 0.5 x 280 ml = 140 ml Ensure + 140 ml water = 280 ml (50% solution)
The nurse is caring for a client who is receiving 24-hour total parenteral nutrition (TPN) via a
central line at 54 ml/hr. When initially assessing the client, the nurse notes that the TPN solution
has run out and the next TPN solution is not available. What immediate action should the nurse
take? - Answer>>> Infuse 10% dextrose and water at 54 ml/hour.
The healthcare provider prescribes the adjustment of the IV hourly rate based on the nasogastric
tube (NGT) output every 4 hour for a client who had abdominal surgery yesterday. From 1200 to
1600, the NGT output was 240 ml, and the IV of Dextrose 5% in 0.45% Sodium chloride (D51/2
NS) was infused at a rate of 100 ml/hour. At 1600 the nurse should regulate the IV to deliver
how many ml/hour to replace this fluid loss? (Enter numeric value only, using a whole number.)
- Answer>>> 160
To calculate the hourly rate of IV fluid replacement based on the last 4 hours of NGT output, the
nurse should calculate an average hourly output by dividing 240 ml by 4 hours = 60 ml NGT
, output every 1 hour.The nurse should then add the 60 ml loss per hour to the present infusion
rate of 100 ml/hr, totaling an infusion rate of 160 ml/hour for the next 4 hours.
The healthcare provider prescribes a secondary infusion of Dextrose 5% in Water (D5W) 50 mg
IV with magnesium sulfate 4 gram/50 mI to be infused over 30 minutes for a client with
preeclampsia. The nurse should program the infusion pump to deliver how many ml/hour? (Enter
numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest whole number.) - Answer>>>
100
What action should the nurse implement when accessing an implanted infusion port for a client
who receives long term IV medications? - Answer>>> Insert a Huber-point needle into the port
A client receives a prescription for an intravenous infusion of Dextrose 5% in 0.45% Sodium
chloride (D51/2 NS) 500 ml to be infused over 6 hours. The nurse should program the infusion
pump to deliver how many ml/hour? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to
the nearest whole number.) - Answer>>> 83
A healthcare provider prescribes a continuous infusion of 0.9% sodium chloride 250 ml with
pancuronium (Pavulon) 25 mg at a rate of 0.1 mg/kg/hour for a client with coronary artery
bypass grafting. The client weighs 78 kg. The nurse should program the infusion pump to deliver
how many ml/hour? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest
tenth.) - Answer>>> 78
A client who had a small bowel resection two weeks ago is receiving 3/4 strength Ensure
feedings 275 ml every 4 hours via nasogastric tube. Full strength Ensure is available in a 240 ml
can. The nurse should use how many ml of Ensure to prepare the feeding? (Enter numeric value
only. Round to nearest whole number if needed.) - Answer>>> Using the formula Desired % / on
Hand % x Volume Desired = 75/100 x 275 = 0.75 x 275 = 206 Ensure
206 ml Ensure + 69 ml water = 275 ml (75% solution)
A client is receiving Dextrose 5% in Water (D5W) 1,000 ml at 75 ml/hour. The nurse hangs the
bag of IV fluids at 0300. At what time, based on the 24-hour clock, should the infusion be
completed? - Answer>>> Calculate the number of hours an IV bag of 1,000 ml should infuse,
