Problem:
A child weighing 17.6 pounds (8 kg) receives a prescription for atropine 0.1 mg intravenously (IV) 30 minutes prior to surgery. The recommended dosage ranges are 0.02 mg/kg for a child less than 5 kg; for a child greater than 5 kg, 0.01 to 0.02 mg/kg; and the dose should not exceed 0.4 mg. Atropine is available as 0.4 mg/mL for injection. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Enter numerical value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest hundredth.)
