Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer clindamycin 900 mg by intermittent IV bolus over 30 min. Available is clindamycin 900 mg in 100 mL dextrose 5% (D5W). The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
To calculate the mL/hr for the IV pump, we first determine the total volume to be infused over 30 min. Clindamycin 900 mg in 100 mL D5W means 900 mg in 100 mL.
Therefore, 900 mg in 100 mL is the same as 900 mg in 0.1 L. Next, convert 30 minutes to hours by dividing by 60, which equals 0.5 hours.
To find the mL/hr rate, divide the total volume (100 mL) by the total time (0.5 hours), which equals 200 mL/hr.
Therefore, the correct answer is B (200 mL/hr).

Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the calculated infusion rate.
