A nurse is preparing to administer acetaminophen 10 mg/kg/dose to a child who weighs 28 lb. The amount available is acetaminophen 120 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer?
(Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Severe anemia is a condition characterized by a significant decrease in the number of red blood cells or hemoglobin in the blood, leading to reduced oxygen-carrying capacity. This can result in fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath in the affected individual.

A red blood cell transfusion is given to a child with severe anemia to increase the number of red blood cells and, consequently, the hemoglobin level in the blood. This helps improve oxygen delivery to tissues and organs, which can lead to increased energy levels and reduced fatigue.

Option A is incorrect because red blood cell transfusion is not given to help the body stop bleeding by forming a clot. Platelets are responsible for clot formation, not red blood cells.

Option B is incorrect because a red blood cell transfusion is not used to fight infections. White blood cells and the immune system are responsible for fighting infections.

Option D is incorrect because a red blood cell transfusion is not given to allow her parents to come to visit her. Transfusions are medical treatments to address specific medical conditions and are not related to visitation rights.

For a child with hemophilia experiencing a joint injury, the best home treatment and therapy would be elevation and the application of ice to the affected joint. This approach helps reduce swelling and minimize bleeding in the joint.
Option A (factor VIII concentrates) is a treatment for hemophilia but is typically administered intravenously to replace the deficient clotting factor in the blood. It is not a home treatment for joint injuries.
Option C (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs - NSAIDs) may be used to manage pain and inflammation, but they do not address the underlying bleeding disorder in hemophilia or directly treat joint injuries.
Option D (DDAVP - synthetic vasopressin) is used in some types of hemophilia to temporarily raise factor VIII levels, but it is not typically used for joint injuries or as a home treatment.
