Total Volume to Be Infused= 300ml
Total Time for Infusion= 6 hours
Infusion in 6 Hours = 300 ml
Flow Rate= Total Volume (in ml) / Total Time(in minutes)
Flow rate = 300/6X60 minutes
Rate = 5/6 ml/minute
So Flow Rate is 0.83 ml/minute
Drops fall rate is 60 drops per ml
So No. Of drop fall in 1 ml = 60
Drop fall in 0.83ml = 60 X 0.83
= 50 drops will fall in 1 minute

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. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP! 1. The order is for an IV of 1000 mL D5/0.9 NS q.12h.
