Ati dosage calculation rn proctored assessment 3.2
Calculation
A nurse is preparing to administer filgrastim 480 mcg subcutaneous daily. Available is filgrastim injection 300 mcg/mL. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
mL
Explanation & Rationale
Desired dose = 480 mcg. Available concentration = 300 mcg/mL. Calculate the volume to administer in milliliters (mL). Volume to administer (mL) = Desired dose (mcg) / Available concentration (mcg/mL) = 480 mcg / 300 mcg/mL = 1.6 mL.
