ANSWER.
23) Calculation of gtt/min.
Formula
gtt/min = Volume(ml) / Time(min) * Drop factor (gtt/ml).
Here
Volume(ml) = 500 ml
Time (min) = 600 min (10hr).
Drop factor = 60 gtt/ml (microdrip drop factor).
As per above formula
gtt/min = 500/600 * 60
= 0.83 * 60
= 49.8
= 50 gtt/min.
24) Calculation gtt/min.
gtt/min = Volume(ml) / Time(min) * Drop factor(gtt/ml).
Here
Volume(ml) = 250 ml
Time(min) = 120 min (2hr).
Drop factor = 10 gtt/ml.
As per above formula
gtt/min = 250/120 * 10
= 2.08 * 10
= 20.8
= 21 gtt/min.
25) Calculation of ml/hr.
ml/hr = Volume(ml) / Time(hr).
Calculation of volume.
Volume(ml) = Desired dose/Dose in hand * Quantity.
Here
Desired dose(D) = 1 g.
Dose in hand (H) = 1 g.
Quantity (Q) = 200 ml.
As per above formula
Volume(ml) of drug required = D/H * Q
= 1/1 * 200
= 200 ml.
TIme (hr) = 1.5 hr (90 min).
So
ml/hr = 200 / 1.5
= 133.3 ml/hr.
Remember: You cannot give a decimal of a drop. You need to round it to the nearest whole number. All IV pumps use whole numbers to deliver ml/hr so your answer should be a whole number unless otherwise specified. PLEASE HELP WITH 16 NURSING QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. GOD BLESS YOU!!! 1.
