病人被開立液體抗生素。使用哪種工具測量劑量最準確？
A client is prescribed a liquid antibiotic. Which device is most accurate for measuring the dose?
- ASmall medicine cup小型藥杯
- BKitchen tablespoon廚房用大湯匙
- CHousehold teaspoon家用茶匙
- DCalibrated oral syringe✓ 正解校正過的口服注射器
— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
居家湯匙大小不一，不具備精確刻度，容易導致劑量誤差。校正過的口服針筒（Oral syringe）能精確測量毫升數值，是臨床護理中最推薦的居家給藥工具。 medicine cup 在較小劑量時也容易有測量落差。
A calibrated oral syringe is the most accurate device for measuring liquid antibiotic doses because it provides precise milliliter measurements. Unlike household spoons, which vary in size, or medicine cups, which can be prone to pouring errors, an oral syringe ensures the client receives the correct therapeutic amount.
