Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer ceftriaxone 1 g via intermittent IV bolus over 30 min. Available is 1 g ceftriaxone sodium in 100 mL dextrose 5% in water. The nurse should set the pump to deliver how many mL/hr?
Correct Answer: 200
Rationale: The correct answer is 200 mL/hr.
To calculate the rate, we first determine the total volume to be infused (100 mL) over the time (30 min = 0.5 hr).
Then, we divide the total volume by the time to get the rate in mL/hr (100 mL / 0.5 hr = 200 mL/hr). This ensures the ceftriaxone is delivered at the correct rate for the prescribed 30-minute administration. Other choices are incorrect as they do not follow the correct calculation process or do not match the required infusion rate.
