Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer 4,000 units of heparin subcutaneously to a client who has deep-vein thrombosis. Available is heparin 10,000 units/mL. How many mL of heparin should the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 0.4 mL.
To calculate the amount of heparin to administer, you would use the formula: Volume (mL) = Dose (units) / Concentration (units/mL). In this case, Volume = 4,000 / 10,000 = 0.4 mL.
Choice A is correct as it correctly calculates the volume of heparin required based on the dose and concentration provided. Other choices are incorrect as they do not calculate the correct volume based on the given information.
