A nurse is preparing to administer fentanyl 100 mcg IM one time for pain to a client who is in labor and requests pain medication. Available is fentanyl injection 0.05 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer?
(Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
The Correct Answer is ["2"]
Volume (mL) = Dose (mcg) / Concentration (mcg/mL) Volume (mL) = 100 mcg / 50 mcg/mL
Volume (mL) = 2 mL
Therefore, the nurse should administer 2 mL of fentanyl injection 0.05 mg/mL to the client
