    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct dosage for Ertapenem is indeed 1g IV/IO in 100mL NS over 30 minutes. This means that the medication should be administered intravenously or intraosseously at a dose of 1 gram, diluted in 100 milliliters of normal saline, and infused over a period of 30 minutes. This dosage and administration method are appropriate for Ertapenem, an antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is true. The dose for Ondanestran is 4mg IV/IO/ODT POx1 in 15-20 minutes, with a maximum dose of 8mg.

    The statement is true. When administering Ketamine, a repeat dose of 50mg IN (intranasal) is given every 20 minutes as needed, with a maximum dose of 100mg. This means that if the initial dose of 50mg does not provide the desired effect, it can be repeated after 20 minutes. However, the total dose should not exceed 100mg.

The other options, such as 15mg POx1 (oral dose), .4mg IV/IO/IN (intravenous/intraosseous/intranasal dose), and IO Analgesia b4 fluid infusion (intravenous analgesia before fluid infusion), are not appropriate doses for Oxymetazoline.
