The nurse calculates that 8 ml of cefazolin is to be drawn from a vial after reconstitution. The instructions state that the medication is to be further diluted in 50 mls of NSS for IV administration and to run over 30 minutes. At what rate will the nurse set to infusion pump to deliver the medication?

A) Working on an arithmetic quiz for 20 minutes without getting out of their seat: This outcome indicates improved focus and attention span, which are desired effects of methylphenidate in managing ADHD symptoms. The ability to stay seated and concentrate on a task for an extended period is a positive sign of the medication’s effectiveness.

B) Family members report no episodes of pica: Pica, the consumption of non-food items, is not typically associated with ADHD. Therefore, the absence of pica episodes is not a relevant outcome for evaluating the effectiveness of methylphenidate in this context.

C) Does not tell untrue information: While honesty is important, it is not a primary focus of ADHD treatment. Methylphenidate aims to improve attention, focus, and reduce hyperactivity, rather than directly addressing truthfulness.
D) Completing a jigsaw puzzle with a friend: Successfully completing a jigsaw puzzle with a friend demonstrates improved attention, focus, and social interaction skills. These are positive outcomes of methylphenidate treatment for ADHD, indicating better management of hyperactivity and distractibility.

A) Second intercostal space right of sternum: This is the correct location for auscultating an aortic murmur. The aortic area is best heard at the second intercostal space on the right side of the sternum, where the sound of blood flow through the aortic valve is most prominent.

B) Fourth intercostal space, left mid-clavicular line: This location is typically associated with the mitral valve area, not the aortic area. While important for other heart sounds, it does not correspond to where an aortic murmur would be heard loudest.

C) Third intercostal space, left of sternum: This area is generally associated with the pulmonic area, not the aorta. Murmurs from the aortic valve would not be best heard here.

D) Second intercostal space left of sternum: This location is associated with the pulmonic area as well. An aortic murmur would not be best auscultated here, making this option incorrect for identifying an aortic murmur specifically.
