Calculation
A nurse is preparing to administer enoxaparin 75 mg subcutaneous once daily to an antepartum client who has a clotting disorder. Available is enoxaparin injection 100 mg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest hundredth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
mL
Explanation & Rationale
Calculation: Prescribed dose = 75 mg Available concentration = 100 mg per 1 mL Calculate the volume in milliliters (mL) to administer. Volume (mL) = (Prescribed dose (mg) / Available concentration (mg)) x Available volume (mL) = (75 mg / 100 mg) x 1 mL = 0.75 x 1 mL = 0.75 mL.
