Passage / Scenario
A nurse is documenting in a client's medical record. Which of the following abbreviations is appropriate for the nurse to use? (Select all that apply.)2 mg
Correct answer
A,C,D
Rationale
The correct choices are A, C, and D. A stands for morphine sulfate, a common medication dosage unit. C signifies the dosing frequency "twice daily," and D indicates "every day." Together, these choices provide a comprehensive prescription instruction - 2 mg of morphine sulfate to be taken twice daily, every day. Choices B, E, F, and G are incorrect as they do not contribute to a complete and accurate prescription instruction. Choice B, 30 mL, is a volume measurement and does not specify the medication or dosing instructions. Choices E, F, and G are blank, hence irrelevant. The correct answer combines the medication, dosage, and frequency to ensure clear and effective treatment.
