Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer fluconazole 400 mg by intermittent IV bolus daily. Available is fluconazole 400 mg in 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCI) 200 mL to infuse over 2 hr. nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mi/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth/whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Your Answer:

Correct Answer: 100 mL/hr

Rationale:
To calculate the IV pump rate for fluconazole 400 mg in 0.9% NaCl 200 mL over 2 hours, we first convert 400 mg to mL using the drug concentration, which is 400 mg/200 mL = 2 mg/mL. Next, we determine the total volume required over 2 hours, which is 200 mL.
Then, we divide the total volume by the total time to get the rate per hour, which is 200 mL / 2 hours = 100 mL/hr.
Therefore, the correct answer is 100 mL/hr as the IV pump rate.

Summary:
-
Choice A, B, C, D, E, F, and G are incorrect because they do not follow the correct calculation method to determine the IV pump rate for administering fluconazole 400 mg over 2 hours. The correct rate is 100 mL/hr based on the drug concentration and total volume to be infused.
