Answer #1

ANSWER.

* Calculation of amount(mg) will the nurse administer.

          Ordered dose = 45 mg/m2.

          Body surface area of the patient = 1.75 m2.

    So

     Amount(mg) of drug the nurse will administer for a patient

                                with body surface area 1.75 m2 = 45 * 1.75

                                                                              = 78.75

                                                                                 = 78.8 mg.
