Question 1 of 5
A 2-year-old is being treated for a pneumonia. The health care provider orders 15mg/kg of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid to be administered every 12 hours. The child weighs 25 pounds. The elixir comes in a strength of 250 mg/5 mL. How many mL of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid should the nurse administer to this child per dose? mL (Round to the nearest tenth)
Correct Answer: 3.4 mL/dose
Rationale: Calculation: 25 lbs = 11.34 kg, 15 mg/kg * 11.34 kg = 170.1 mg/dose, 170.1 mg / (250 mg/5 mL) = 3.4 mL/dose.

Question 3 of 5
A professional nurse is searching for information on confidentiality in nursing in a database. The nurse enters two key words (confidentiality, nursing) into the search interface of the database. The nurse retrieves too many records and does not have much time to review all the records. Which of the following Boolean Operators would be appropriate for the nurse to use with the key words to narrow the search?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The 'AND' operator narrows the search by retrieving only records that contain both keywords, 'confidentiality' and 'nursing,' thus reducing the number of results. 'Maybe' is not a valid Boolean operator. 'NOT' excludes records containing a specific term, which could unintentionally exclude relevant records. 'OR' broadens the search by retrieving records that contain either keyword, leading to more results.

Enhanced ability to extract information and availability of an audit trail are secondary benefits. Decreased decentralization is not a typical goal or benefit of electronic documentation systems.
