Answer #1

Order =50ml of cefazolin over 30 minutes by infusion pump.

Ml/hour = 50ml * 60mintes(hour) ÷ 30mts

=100ml/hour

Order =90mg/kg

Weight =33lb=15kgs (approximately)

Drug available 100mg/ml

The dose=90mg*15kgs

=1350mg

In ml= 1350mg/100mg/ml

=13.5ml to be given

Flow rate = volume to be given(ml) x drop factor(gtt/ml) ÷ total time (mts)

Volume to be given =2 liters = 2000ml

Time =16 hours= 960mts

Drop factor =12gtt/ml

Flow rate = 2000 ml x 12gtt/mt ÷ 960 mts

= 25GTT/mt
