Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer amphotericin B lipid complex via intermittent IV bolus to a client who has infective endocarditis. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Prime the tubing with 0.9% sodium chloride. This is important because amphotericin B lipid complex is incompatible with dextrose-containing solutions. Priming the tubing with 0.9% sodium chloride ensures that the medication is not mixed with dextrose, which could cause precipitation and reduce the effectiveness of the medication. Discarding the medication if it is yellow (choice
A) is not necessary as the color may vary due to the lipid complex. Administering the medication over 2 hr (choice
B) is incorrect as it should be given over a specific time frame according to the manufacturer's instructions. Using a gravity flow set (choice
D) is not recommended for administering medications like amphotericin B lipid complex, which require precise control of infusion rate.
