HESI RN Dosage Calculations Precision Medication Math for Safe Nursing Practice 2025 Edition

The HESI RN Dosage Calculations exam, from Elsevier's Health Education Systems Incorporated (HESI), is a foundational 55-question, 90-minute evaluation designed to ensure Registered Nursing (RN) students master computational skills for error-free medication delivery. This adaptive test includes multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank items on oral/parenteral conversions (e.g., mg/kg to mL), IV flow rates (gtt/min using macro/micro drops), specialized dosing like neonatal Clark's rule or oncology BSA, and scenarios such as vasopressor titrations or insulin sliding scales. Grounded in NCLEX-RN priorities for patient safety and dimensional analysis, it features clinical vignettes like TPN adjustments for renal patients. Aiming for 90%+ proficiency, it provides rationales for targeted remediation in ADN/BSN curricula. Preparation leverages HESI review books, Quizlet sets (200+ questions), and calculators like DoseCalc, yielding quick mastery in 10–20 hours. Hosted on HESI Compass, it's crucial for clinical confidence across med-surg, pediatrics, and critical care environments.
