Correct Answer is D
Explanation
To calculate the time it will take to finish the infusion, we can use the formula:
Time = Volume / Rate
Plugging in the given values, we get: Time = 1.5 L / 75 mL/hr
Converting 1.5 L to mL, we get:
Time = 1500 mL / 75 mL/hr Simplifying, we get:
Time = 20 hours
Therefore, it will take 20 hours to finish the infusion at the current rate.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
The Tylenol 3 medication contains codeine 30 mg and acetaminophen (APAP) 300 mg per tablet.
The physician has ordered Tylenol 3 30 mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. Therefore, the nurse should administer 1 tablet (containing 30 mg of codeine and 300 mg of APAP) every 4-6 hours as needed for pain..
It is important to note that the maximum daily dose of acetaminophen is 4,000 mg. Therefore, the nurse should monitor the total daily dose of acetaminophen the patient receives from all sources to ensure it does not exceed 4,000 mg.
