Practice Math Problems
Sometimes you may need to calculate the rate of milliliters per hour (mL/hr) of an infusion. You can find this rate by dividing the total volume by the total infusion time. Calculate the mL/hr for the following order: 1000 mL D
5
W with 0.45% NS to infuse in 8 hours using tubing with a drop factor of
15 gtts/mL. 1000 ÷ 8 = _________mL/hrWhat is the flow rate
for the above order? _________gtts/min.
During your 12 hour shift in the ICU today, you receive the following IV medical orders that you must set up and administer to your patients.
Dr. Smith ordered 500 mL D
5 1⁄2 NS to infuse in 6 h; drop factor: 20 gtts/mL. What is the flow rate? (1)
____________
Dr. Amad ordered 1000 ml D
5
W with 10 mEq KCL to infuse at 100 mL/h using tubing with a drop factor of 20 gtts/mL. The infusion was started at 6:30 a.m. What is the total infusion time? (2)
__________ What time will the infusion end? (3) ____________ What is the flow rate? (4)
________
