This is the whole problem. I believe that the answer is 7 mL. mL/1mg x 2mg= 2 mg for the dose + 5 mL= 7 mL total dose. Some else told me the answer was 6 mL. I just wanted to see what the real answer was for my own learning NOT for a homework assignment.

You want to give 2 mg Morphine. You have 1mg/mL Morphine syringes. Dilute with 5 mL. How many mL do you give?

1. 2 mg Morphine IVP now. You have 1mg/ml Morphine syringes. The drug book instructs you to dilute with 5 mLs of NS and infuse over 5 mins. Give:____6_____mL at the rate of _____1.2_____mL/min or _____0.25_____ mL per 15 secs When I do this problem I get 7 mL, 1.4, & 0.35. How is it that the answer is 6 mL and not 7 mL?

Both are full time and both I would end up an OHSU BSN graduate. Cost of living is a lot cheaper with the community college because it is my hometown. The CC would not end up on any diplomas because I would be transferring my last year to OHSU before getting my RN license.

They are both BSN options. With the community college I would do 2 years and then my last at OHSU to get a BSN through the OCNE program.

I have been accepted into OHSU-La Grande and BMCC in Pendleton, Oregon (Bachelor's degree through OCNE). Having learned the cost differences my original choice of OHSU is starting to fade. I would be 60,000 or more in debt after attending OHSU and less than 30,000 at BMCC + a year at OHSU. I am having a hard time deciding and am hoping someone else that may have been in my position could help me out with some advice.
