The healthcare provider prescribes the antibiotic surgical prophylaxis protocol for a client who weighs 90 kg. The protocol is cefazolin 2 grams/100 mL 0.9% normal saline over 1 hour for clients weighing less than 265.5 pounds or cefazolin 3 grams/100 mL 0.9% normal saline over 90 minutes for clients weighing greater than 265.5 pounds. The nurse should program the pump to deliver how many mL/hr?

Correct Answer: 100
