The recommended dosage of vancomycin for an adult with a severe infection is 20 to 25 mg/kg/dose IV every 12 hours. The adult weighs 144 lb. Round converted weight to the nearest tenth. What is the 24-hour recommended dosage range for the 144-lb. adult in milligrams? Round both numbers of the range to the nearest whole number. What is the 24-hour recommended dosage range in grams? Round final answer to the nearest tenth. The health care provider ordered 1.5 g IV every 12 hours. Is the ordered dose safe? Provide a yes or no response.

Correctly re-state the following medication order using the ISMP list of Error-Prone Abbreviations, Symbols, and Dose Designations. Do not use abbreviations in your final answer. Order: Furosemide 40 mg IV OD

The client is to receive an IV of D5NS 1,250 mL over 12 hours. The client also has an order for an IVPB of vancomycin 1 g in 300 mL to infuse in 90 minutes. The IV infusion will be regulated by a pump. The drop factor for both IV tubing is 15 gtt/mL. Round both final answers to the nearest whole number. What is the flow rate of the primary IV in gtt/min? What is the flow rate of the secondary IV in gtt/min?

Determine the BSA for the following client. A child whose weight is 91 lb and height is 40 inches. Express final answer to the nearest hundredth. Indicate unit of measure as m2.

Determine the infusion time for the following IV.  Order: 1,000 mL D5W infusing at 90 mL/hour (Round time to the nearest hundredth.) How long will it take the infusion to be completed? Express final answer in hours and minutes. The IV was started at 0200. At what time will the infusion be complete? Express final answer in military time.

Describe an accelerometer and what it measures.

An IV of 700 mL is ordered to infuse in 5 hours at a rate of 25 gtt/min. Drop factor: 20 gtt/mL. After 3.5 hours, you notice that 375 mL has infused. Round both final answers to the nearest whole number. What will be the new recalculated rate using the same tubing in mL/hr? What will be the new recalculated rate using the same tubing in gtt/min?

If a plant species shows thermal acclimation as the climate changes, we would expect to see that

In the phloem of angiosperms, sugars flow from to (general locations).  Positive pressure occurs in the (cell type) due to the active loading of (compound) from the transfer cells followed by the movement of (compound).  This pressure pushes the phloem sap through the at the ends of each conducting cell.  The sugars conducted by the phloem may have originally been produced by occurring in the leaves or by converting (compound) stored in roots or stems to sugars. 

Order: 125 mL Lactated Ringers to run at 20 mL/hour. The drop factor is 60 gtt/mL. The infusion started at 1100 hours.  How long will the IV last? (Express in hours and minutes) At what time will the infusion be completed? (Express final answer in military time) What will the flow rate be in gtt/min? Round final answer to the nearest whole number.
