Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer Igrasm 5mcg/kg/day subcutaneous to a client who weighs 143 lb. How many mcg should the nurse administer per day?
Correct Answer: 325 mcg
Rationale: The correct answer is 325 mcg. First, convert the client's weight from lb to kg: 143 lb รท 2.2 = 65 kg. Next, calculate the daily dose: 5 mcg/kg/day x 65 kg = 325 mcg/day.
Therefore, the nurse should administer 325 mcg per day.
Other choices are incorrect because they do not follow the correct conversion of weight to kg and do not calculate the dose accurately based on the weight and prescribed dosage.
