Medication Administration第 4 / 100 题
An order reads 'give at HS.' What does HS indicate?
a.Every hour
b.At bedtime (hour of sleep)
c.Half strength
d.As needed for pain
解析
HS means hour of sleep, or bedtime. Misreading it as 'half strength' or 'every hour' could cause a serious dosing error, so standard abbreviations must be memorized.
