A patient is prescribed albuterol 2 puffs every 4 hours as


Hello. Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you all.

1. A patient is prescribed albuterol, 2 puffs every 4 hours as needed for wheezing. The dosage of the albulterol is 90 mcg/spray. If the patient took the ordered amount of inhaler 4 times in a single day, how many mcg of albuterol was administered?

2. A nurse plans to administer 500 mL of 0.9% NS over 5 hours. What is the IV flow rate in mL/hr?

3. A provider of care orders a 40 mEq bolus of potassium chloride (KCl) to be diluted in 200 mL of 5% dextrose in water (D5W). The KCI is to infuse at a rate of 10 mEq per 60 minutes. At what rate should the IV pump be set in mL/hr?

4. The provider of care has ordered insulin lispro on a sliding scale for 1 unit/10g CHO subcutaneous + 1 unit/50 points above 150 blood glucose (BG) level. The patient has a pre-meal BG level of 282 and will eat a meal that contains 40 g CHO. How many units of insulin should be administered?
