Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer gentamicin 5 mg/kg via intermittent IV bolus to a client who weighs 210 lb. The amount available is gentamicin 10 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer?(Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 48 mL
Rationale: Weight: 210 lb ÷ 2.2 = 95.45 kg. Dose: 5 mg/kg × 95.45 kg = 477.25 mg. Volume: 477.25 mg ÷ 10 mg/mL = 47.725 mL, rounded to 48 mL.
