Correct Answer is C
Explanation
To dilute the enteral feeding formula to half strength, we need to add an equal volume of water to the formula. Therefore, we need to add 250 mL of water to the 250 mL of full strength formula to make a total volume of 500 mL at half strength..
So the nurse should add 250 mL of water to the formula to dilute it to half strength.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
To calculate the flow rate in mL/hr for a continuous infusion, we need to divide the total volume to be infused by the total time of infusion, and then convert the units as necessary.
In this case, the total volume is 2.5 L, which is equivalent to 2500 mL (1 L = 1000 mL), and the total time is 15 hours.
Flow rate = Total volume to be infused / Total time of infusion Flow rate = 2500 mL / 15 hours
Flow rate = 166.67 mL/hr
Therefore, the flow rate for continuous infusion of 0.9% sodium chloride solution in this case is 166.67 mL/hr.
