Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. The order is for Regular Humulin Insulin U-100, which means 100 units per mL.
2. The prescribed dosage is 12 units.
3. The syringe is marked from 0 to 100 units.
4. We need to determine the correct dosage to administer and represent it visually on the syringe.
STEP 2
1. Understand the dosage order.
2. Identify the syringe markings.
3. Calculate the volume to administer.
4. Shade the syringe to indicate the correct dosage.
STEP 3
Understand the dosage order: The order is for 12 units of Regular Humulin Insulin U-100 to be administered subcutaneously.
STEP 4
Identify the syringe markings: The syringe is marked from 0 to 100 units, with each marking representing 1 unit.
STEP 5
Calculate the volume to administer: Since the insulin is U-100, 12 units corresponds directly to 12 units on the syringe.
STEP 6
Shade the syringe to indicate the correct dosage: Shade up to the 12-unit mark on the syringe to represent the dosage.
The dosage to administer is 12 units, and the syringe should be shaded up to the 12-unit mark to indicate this dosage.
