A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 80 mg/kg/day divided into two doses daily to a 2-year-old client who weighs 10 kg (22 lb). Available is amoxicillin suspension 400 mg/5 mL. How many mL of amoxicillin should the nurse administer per dose?

(Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Choice A Reason:

Providing video games prior to bedtime might actually stimulate the child and make it harder for them to relax and fall asleep.

Choice B Reason:

Follow the child's home sleep routine to reduce anxiety. Maintaining consistency with the child's home sleep routine can provide familiarity and comfort, potentially reducing anxiety and promoting better sleep. This familiarity can help the child feel more secure and relaxed, aiding in the transition to sleep in an unfamiliar environment.

Choice C Reason:

Leaving the lights on in the child's room can disrupt the child's ability to achieve restful sleep as the environment may not be conducive to falling and staying asleep.

Choice D Reason:

Allowing the child to adjust their bedtime might not be the best approach in a hospital setting, as maintaining some routine and structure could be more beneficial for their recovery and overall well-being during the hospital stay.

Choice A Reason:

Type 1 diabetes mellitus is correct. Type 1 diabetes is considered a risk factor for cardiovascular disease due to its potential impact on blood vessels and the heart over time. Individuals with diabetes, especially poorly controlled diabetes, are at a higher risk of developing cardiovascular complications such as heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.

Choice B Reason:

Orthostatic hypotension is incorrect. Orthostatic hypotension refers to a drop-in blood pressure when moving from a lying or sitting position to a standing position. While it can cause symptoms like dizziness or lightheadedness, it's not typically considered a direct risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, it might be associated with other conditions or medications that could contribute to cardiovascular issues indirectly.

Choice C Reason:

BMI of 24 is incorrect. A BMI (Body Mass Index) of 24 falls within the normal weight range. While obesity (especially central obesity or higher BMIs) is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, having a BMI of 24 by itself is not considered a significant risk factor for developing cardiovascular issues.

Choice D Reason:

Family history of osteoporosis is incorrect. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weakened bones, not directly related to cardiovascular disease. A family history of osteoporosis doesn't inherently indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular disease unless there are other associated factors or conditions within the family history that contribute to cardiovascular issues.
