ATI RN Pharmacology 2023 Retake 2 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer cefazolin 1 g in 0.9% sodium chloride 100 mL via intermittent IV bolus over 30 min. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 15 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
To calculate the IV infusion rate in drops per minute (gtt/min) for cefazolin 1 g in 0.9% sodium chloride 100 mL over 30 min with a drop factor of 15 gtt/mL, use the formula: (Volume to be infused in mL ÷ Time in min) × Drop factor.

1 g in 100 mL = 100 mL
(100 mL ÷ 30 min) × 15 gtt/mL = 50 gtt/min


Therefore, the correct answer is A (50 gtt/min) because it accurately calculates the IV infusion rate based on the given parameters. Other choices are incorrect as they do not correctly apply the formula or round the answer incorrectly.
