Correct Answer is ["20"]

Explanation

Calculate the total units of insulin in the IV bag:
- The bag contains 150 mL of solution.
- The concentration is 0.456 units/mL.
- Total insulin = 150 mL × 0.456 units/mL = 68.4 units.
Determine how long the IV bag will last:
- The ordered rate is 9 units/hour.
- Total duration = 68.4 units ÷ 9 units/hour = 7.6 hours.
Calculate the IV pump rate:
- The total volume of the bag is 150 mL.
- Pump rate = 150 mL ÷ 7.6 hours = 19.74 mL/hr.
- Rounded to the nearest whole number: 20 mL/hr.

So the nurse should set the IV pump to 20 mL/hr.

Explanation

Answer and explanation

Choice A rationale:

LOP (Left Occiput Posterior) would mean the baby’s occiput is towards the mother’s left and facing posteriorly, which is not the case here.

Choice B rationale:

ROA (Right Occiput Anterior) would mean the baby’s occiput is towards the mother’s right and facing anteriorly, which matches the description.

Choice C rationale:

LOA (Left Occiput Anterior) would mean the baby’s occiput is towards the mother’s left and facing anteriorly, which is not the case here.

Choice D rationale:

ROP (Right Occiput Posterior) would mean the baby’s occiput is towards the mother’s right and facing posteriorly, which is not the case here.
