The nurse is to administer heparin to a client who weighs 90 pounds. Heparin is ordered as 10,000 units/100mL. The nurse needs to administer a bolus of 40units/kg. How many units would the nurse administer? (Round to the nearest tenth)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 1636.4 units. Convert 90 pounds to kilograms (90 / 2.2 = 40.91 kg). Calculate the dose: 40.91 kg × 40 units/kg = 1636.4 units. This matches the provided correct answer, so option C (1636.4 units) is correct.
