Question 8:

The health care provider orders 0.001 grams of vitamin K for the neonate via intramuscular injection once.

How many milliliters will the nurse administer to the neonate? Round to the nearest tenths place.

Answer and Explanation
Correct Answer: "0.5" mL

Explanation

The health care provider orders 0.001 grams of vitamin K for the neonate via intramuscular injection once. The vial contains vitamin K 1 mg/0.5 mL. How many milliliters will the nurse administer to the neonate? Round to the nearest tenths place.

Step 1 is: Convert the ordered dose from grams to milligrams. 0.001 grams × 1000 mg/gram = 1 mg.

Step 2 is: Calculate the volume to administer using the available concentration. 1 mg ÷ (1 mg ÷ 0.5 mL) = 1 mg ÷ (2 mg/mL) = 0.5 mL. The nurse will administer 0.5 mL to the neonate.
