QuestionA nurse is preparing to administer clindamycin 900 mg by intermittent IV bolus over 45 min\mathbf{4 5 ~ m i n}. Available is clindamycin 900 mg in 100 mL dextrose 5%5 \% ( D5 W\mathrm{D}_{5} \mathrm{~W} ). The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hr\mathrm{mL} / \mathrm{hr} ? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.) \square mL/hr\mathrm{mL} / \mathrm{hr}

Studdy Solution
Calculate the rate:
Rate (mL/hr)=1000.75133.33 mL/hr\text{Rate (mL/hr)} = \frac{100}{0.75} \approx 133.33 \text{ mL/hr}
Round to the nearest whole number:
Rate (mL/hr)=133 mL/hr\text{Rate (mL/hr)} = 133 \text{ mL/hr}
The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver:
133 mL/hr\boxed{133 \text{ mL/hr}}
