A nurse is preparing to administer enoxaparin 0.75 mg/kg subcutaneously to a client who weighs 154 lb. The amount available is enoxaparin 60 mg/0.6 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.).

Choice A rationale:

Scheduling the client for the last surgery of the day is not directly related to the client's latex allergy. Proper planning for surgery in a latex-allergic client involves addressing potential exposures to latex-containing products and minimizing the risk of allergic reactions.

Choice B rationale:

Placing monitoring cords and tubes in a stockinette can help create a barrier between the client's skin and the latex-containing products. This measure helps reduce the risk of direct contact with latex, which could trigger an allergic reaction in a latex-sensitive individual.

Choice C rationale:

Choosing rubber injection ports for fluid administration is not appropriate for a client with a latex allergy. Rubber products often contain latex, which can lead to an allergic reaction in susceptible individuals.

Choice D rationale:

Having phenytoin IV readily available is not directly relevant to a client with a latex allergy. Phenytoin is an antiepileptic medication and should be available for clients who require it, but it does not address the specific concern of latex exposure.

Choice A rationale:
Lurasidone does not necessarily need to be taken on an empty stomach. It can be taken with or without food.
Choice B rationale:

Avoiding grapefruit juice is essential with lurasidone as it can interfere with the drug's metabolism and increase the risk of side effects.
Choice C rationale:
Changing positions slowly is relevant for medications that can cause orthostatic hypotension, but lurasidone is not typically associated with this side effect.
Choice D rationale:
Lurasidone can cause insomnia in some individuals, so it is important for the client to be aware of this potential side effect. It is best taken in the evening to minimize this effect.
Choice E rationale:
While involuntary movements (extrapyramidal symptoms) can occur with some antipsychotic medications, lurasidone has a lower risk of causing these side effects compared to older antipsychotics. It is not a major concern with lurasidone treatment.
