Infusion Rates for Dextrose (D5W). A 5% dextrose solution (mg per 100 mL of solution ) is given intravenously. Suppose a total of 1.5 L of the solution is given over a 12-hour period.

 

a.      What is the flow rate in units mL/hr? In units of mg (of dextrose)/hr

b.      If each milliliter of the solution is equivalent to 15 drops (this drop factor is expressed as 15 gtt/mL, where the abbreviation gtt comes from the Latin guttta, for drop), what is the flow rate in units of gtt/hr?

c.      During the 12-hour period, how much dextrose is delivered?
