A nurse is planning to administer medications to a client who weighs 198 lb. The prescription reads, "filgrastim 5 mcg/kg, subcutaneous, daily." Available is filgrastim 300 mcg/mL. How many mL should the nurse plan to give with each dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. Constipation: Constipation is not a commonly reported adverse effect of clopidogrel.

Therefore, it is not necessary to instruct the client to monitor and report constipation as an adverse effect.
B. Weight loss: Weight loss is not a commonly reported adverse effect of clopidogrel. Therefore, it is not necessary to instruct the client to monitor and report weight loss as an adverse effect.
C. Bruising: Clopidogrel is an antiplatelet medication that inhibits platelet aggregation.

Therefore, one of the potential adverse effects is an increased risk of bleeding, which can

manifest as easy bruising or prolonged bleeding from minor injuries. Instructing the client to monitor and report bruising is important for early detection of bleeding complications.
D. Blurred vision: Blurred vision is not a commonly reported adverse effect of clopidogrel.

Therefore, it is not necessary to instruct the client to monitor and report blurred vision as an adverse effect.

A. "You will be weighed twice a week while receiving TPN": While weight monitoring may be part of the client's overall care plan, it is not specifically related to TPN administration.
Therefore, this statement is not a priority for inclusion in the teaching.

B. "Your blood sugar will be checked once a day": Blood sugar monitoring may be necessary for clients receiving TPN, especially if they have diabetes or are at risk of hyperglycemia. However, the frequency of monitoring may vary depending on individual factors and is not universally applicable. Therefore, this statement may or may not be accurate for this client and should not be included in the teaching.
C. "You will have a central line placed to receive TPN": TPN solutions are administered through a central venous catheter to ensure adequate and safe delivery of nutrients directly into the bloodstream. Therefore, informing the client about the need for a central line is essential for TPN administration and should be included in the teaching.
D. "Your intake and output will be measured every 2 days": While monitoring intake and output is important for assessing fluid balance and renal function, the frequency of measurement may vary depending on the client's condition and institutional protocols. Therefore, this statement
may or may not be accurate for this client and should not be a priority for inclusion in the teaching.
