DOSAGE CALCULATIONS EXAM QUESTIONS WITH 100% CORRECT ANSWERS LATEST 2023 GRADED 100%. A client with a Trichomonas vaginalis infection receives a prescription for metronidazole (Flagyl) 1 gram. The medication is available in 500 mg tablets. How many tablets should the nurse administer? (Enter numeric value only.) Incorrect Correct Responses  2 1 gram = 1000 mg 1 tablet :: 500 mg = X tablets :: 1000 mg X = 1000/500 = 2 tablets Awarded 0.0 points out of 1.0 possible points. 4. 5.ID: 84 A client is receiving an IV solution of 2 grams of medication diluted in 100 ml of normal saline over a one hour time period. How many mg of medication is the client receiving per minute? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest whole number.) Incorrect Correct Responses  33 2 grams = 2000 mg 1 hour = 60 minutes 2000 mg/60 minutes = 33.333 mg/minute, rounded to 33 mg/minute Awarded 0.0 points out of 1.0 possible points. 5. 6.ID: 04 The healthcare provider prescribes propofol (Diprivan) at 8 mcg/kg/minute for a client during conscious sedation. The drug is dispensed as 100 mg/50 ml 0.9% normal saline. The client's weight is 198 pounds. 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.) Incorrect Correct Responses  21.6 The client's weight in kg is 90 kg (198 pounds / 2.2 pounds). Next, determine the total mcg in the NS infusion (1 mg : 1000 mcg :: 100 mg : 100,000 mcg) and the IV concentration per ml (100,000 mcg : 50 ml :: X mcg : 1 ml). 100,000 / 50 = 2000 mcg/ml. Then, calculate the prescribed dose (mcg/kg/min) x 60 min/hour x kilograms divided by concentration (mcg/ml). 8 x 90 x 60 divided by 2000 = 21.6 ml/hour Amoxicillin 500 mg PO every 8 hours is prescribed for a client with an infection. The drug is available in a suspension of 125 mg/5ml. How many ml should the nurse administer with each dose?  20 Correct  4  100 500 : X :: 125 : 5 125X = 2,500 X = 20 ml Awarded 1.0 points out of 1.0 possible points. 2. 2.ID: 56 Oxytocin (Pitocin) 4 milliunits/min is prescribed for a client with an ineffective contraction pattern. To administer the prescribed dosage, the nurse adds 20 units of oxytocin to 1,000 ml of Ringer's Lactate. The infusion pump should be set to deliver how many ml/hour? (Enter numeric value only.) Incorrect Correct Responses  12 4 milliunits/min x 1 unit/1000 milliunits x 1000 ml/20 units x 60 min/hr = 240,000/20,000 = 12 ml/hr Awarded 0.0 points out of 1.0 possible points
