Ans)5) Formula:
ml/hr = Total volume to be Infused × drop factor/ time in hr
25 = 500 × 60/ x
x= 30000/25 = 1200
1200/60 = 20 gtt/min

Order: Potassium chloride 20 mEq in 1,000 mL D/NS (pre-mixed solution) IV, infuse at 2 mEq/h. Calculate the rate in mL/h.
Order: NS 1,500 mL IV at 125 mL/h for 12 hours. Since the drop factor is 20 gtt/mL, the initial flow rate was correctly set at 42 gtt/min. After six hours, 900 mL remain to be infused. The infusion is behind schedule. Compute the new flow rate in gtt/min. so that the infusion will finish on time. If flow rates may not be adjusted by more than 25% of the original rate, to what rate would you reset the drip...
