    Calculation

    A client is to receive enoxaparin 30 mg subcutaneously. Available is enoxaparin 40 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Volume (mL) = Dose (mg) / Concentration (mg/mL) In this case: Dose = 30 mg Concentration = 40 mg/mL So, Volume = 30 mg / 40 mg/mL = 0.75 mL Therefore, the nurse should administer 0.8 mL of enoxaparin.
