Question 1 of 32 :
A nurse is preparing to administer morphine 4 mg IV bolus. Available is morphine injection 10 mg/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.)
Correct Answer: 0.4 ml
- To calculate the amount of morphine injection needed, use the formula: D/H x V = A, where D is the desired dose, H is the dose on hand, V is the volume on hand, and A is the amount to administer.
- Plug in the values from the question: 4 mg / 10 mg x 1 ml = 0.4 ml
- Round the answer to the nearest tenth: 0.4 ml
- The nurse should administer 0.4 ml of morphine injection.
