A nurse is caring for a client in a clinic who has foul-smelling urine, a low-grade fever of 37.7°C (100°F), and pain with urination. Which of the following should the nurse expect the health care provider to order? (Select all that apply.)

Choice A reason: A BUN level of 8 mg/dL and a creatinine level of 0.7 mg/dL are within normal ranges for healthy individuals. In CKD, BUN and creatinine levels are typically elevated due to decreased kidney function.

Choice B reason: A BUN level of 45 mg/dL is elevated, which could be expected in CKD, but a creatinine level of 8 ng/dL is not correctly expressed. Creatinine is measured in mg/dL, and in CKD, it would be higher than normal, not lower.

Choice C reason: A BUN level of 10 mg/dL and a creatinine level of 0.3 mg/dL are both lower than what would typically be expected in a patient with CKD. CKD usually results in higher levels due to reduced kidney function.

Choice D reason: A BUN level of 23 mg/dL and a creatinine level of 1.0 mg/dL are more aligned with what might be expected in CKD. Normal BUN levels range from 7 to 20 mg/dL, and normal creatinine levels can vary based on age, sex, and body size. In CKD, both levels tend to be higher as the kidneys' ability to filter blood decreases.

Step 1: The total amount of amantadine required per dose is 150 mg.

Step 2: Each 5 mL of syrup contains 50 mg of amantadine.

Step 3: To find out how many mL are needed, we divide the total amount required by the amount in each 5 mL of syrup. So, (150 mg ÷ 50 mg/5 mL).

Step 4: The result is 15 mL.

So, the nurse should administer 15 mL per dose. This is already a whole number, so no rounding is necessary.
