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. Defining a sense of self: Adolescence is characterized by the search for identity and defining a sense of self. Erikson identifies this stage as "Identity vs. Role Confusion," where individuals explore and form their own identity separate from their family and childhood roles.

B. Learning to perform tasks independently: This is more typical of early childhood (Erikson's "Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt"). During this stage, children are learning basic independence, such as dressing and feeding themselves.

C. Learning to use creative energies: This task is more relevant to the preschool age group (Erikson's "Initiative vs. Guilt"), where children engage in imaginative play and begin exploring their own ideas and creativity.

D. Building a sense of trust: Building a sense of trust is the primary task in infancy (Erikson's "Trust vs. Mistrust"), where infants develop trust in their caregivers and the world around them.

A. Taking the infant's vital signs every 2 hr: Monitoring vital signs every 2 hours can help assess the infant’s general condition and detect changes in heart rate and blood pressure, which can indicate changes in hydration status. However, it might not be sufficient alone to monitor fluid status.

B. Counting the number of wet diapers every shift: Tracking the number of wet diapers is an effective way to monitor the infant's fluid output and hydration status. An increase in wet diapers typically indicates improved hydration. This is a practical and non-invasive method for assessing the effectiveness of IV therapy in infants.

C. Weighing the infant at the same time every day: Daily weights are a critical measure of fluid balance in infants. A consistent daily weight check provides a direct and accurate assessment of the infant’s hydration status and response to IV therapy.

D. Measuring the infant's head circumference twice per day: Measuring head circumference is not relevant for monitoring hydration status. It is typically used to assess growth and development in infants, not fluid balance or response to IV therapy.
