Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer 17,000 units heparin subcutaneously. Available is heparin 20,000 units/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if applicable. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To calculate the mL of heparin needed, use the formula: Amount needed (17,000 units) ÷ Concentration of heparin (20,000 units/mL) = mL to administer. 17,000 ÷ 20,000 = 0.85 mL (Round to the nearest hundredth).
Therefore, the correct answer is A (0.85 mL). Other choices are incorrect as they do not result from the correct calculation.
