ATI RN Fundamentals 2023 Exam 3 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer cefoxitin 80 mg/kg/day IV every 6 hr to a 6-year-old child who weighs 20 kg. How many mg should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: 400

Rationale:
To calculate the dose per administration, we first need to find the total daily dose by multiplying 80 mg/kg/day by the child's weight (80 mg/kg/day x 20 kg = 1600 mg/day). Since the medication is administered every 6 hours, divide the total daily dose by 4 (6 hours = 4 intervals in 24 hours) to get the dose per administration (1600 mg/day / 4 = 400 mg).
Therefore, the nurse should administer 400 mg per dose to the child. Other choices are incorrect as they do not follow the correct calculation method or do not correspond to the calculation based on the given information.
