A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 350 mg PO. The amount available is amoxicillin oral solution 250 mg/5 mL. How many ml. should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth/whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. "I will notify the doctor if his temperature is not controlled with acetaminophen." Notifying the doctor if the temperature is not controlled with acetaminophen is appropriate, as persistent fever might indicate a more severe infection or other complications.

B. "I will continue to check his blood sugar two times every day." Checking blood sugar only twice a day is insufficient during illness, especially for a child with type 1 diabetes. Blood glucose levels can fluctuate significantly due to infection, and more frequent monitoring (at least 4 times a day or as recommended) is necessary.

C. "I will report changes in breathing or signs of confusion." Reporting changes in breathing or signs of confusion is essential, as these can be signs of worsening infection, respiratory distress, or diabetic ketoacidosis, which requires immediate medical attention.

D. "I will encourage him to drink a half a cup of water or sugar-free fluid every 30 minutes." Encouraging fluid intake is important to prevent dehydration and help manage blood glucose levels during illness. Ensuring adequate hydration with water or sugar-free fluids is appropriate.

A. Capillary refill less than 2 seconds: A capillary refill time of less than 2 seconds indicates good peripheral circulation, which is normal and not a cause for concern in this context. It is not the priority.

B. Tingling in the right foot Rationale: Tingling (paraesthesia) can be a sign of nerve damage or compromised circulation, which may indicate complications such as compartment syndrome. This is a priority finding because it can lead to severe consequences if not addressed promptly.

C. 2+ right pedal pulse Rationale: A 2+ pedal pulse indicates a normal pulse strength, which suggests that there is adequate blood flow to the extremity. It is not a priority compared to the potential for neurological or circulatory compromise.

D. Respiratory rate 24/min Rationale: A respiratory rate of 24/min is within the normal range for a school-age child (18-30 breaths per minute). While it is important to monitor vital signs, it is not a priority concern related to the fracture.
