ANSWER.
10) Calculation of rate(gtts/min) of lactated ringers solution.
Formula
Rate (gtts/min) = mL/hr * Drop factor / 60 minutes.
Here
Volume(ml) = 1000 ml.
Time(hr) = 6 hrs.
Drop factor = 12 gtt/mL
As per above formula
Rate (gtts/min) = 1000/6 * 12 / 60
= 166.67 * 12 / 60
= 2000 /60
= 33.33 gtts/min.
