Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a 1-month-old infant who weighs 3500 g and is prescribed a dose of cephazolin 50 mg/kg by intermittent IV bolus three times daily. How many mg should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 175
Rationale:
Rationale:
1. Calculate the infant's weight in kg: 3500 g ÷ 1000 = 3.5 kg.
2. Multiply the weight by the prescribed dose: 3.5 kg x 50 mg/kg = 175 mg.
3.
Therefore, the nurse should administer 175 mg per dose to the infant.
Summary of other choices:
- A, B, C, D, E, F, G: These choices are incorrect as they do not align with the correct calculation based on the infant's weight and the prescribed dose.
