a nurse is preparing to administer cefotaxime 1 g iv bolus every 8 hr. available is cefotaxime injection 1 g/50 ml. how many ml should the nurse administer per dose? (round the answer to the nearest whole number. use a leading zero if it applies. do not use a trailing zero.)

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula

Use the formula ( Volume=\frac{Dose\ ordered}{Dose\ available}\times Volume\ of\ available\ dose).

Step2: Substitute the values

Here, the dose ordered is (1g), the dose available is (1g), and the volume of the available dose is (50ml). So, (Volume = \frac{1g}{1g}\times50ml).

Step3: Calculate the volume

(\frac{1}{1}\times50 = 50ml)

Answer:

(50)
