Question

8) The order reads: Infuse 6 pack of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) over 2 hours. Each pack is 50ml. What rate will you set on t

Answer 1

Answer #1

Infuse 6 pack of FFP over 2 hours each contains 50 mL.

So, total 300 ml should be infused over 2 hours.

Flow rate = Volume of infusion x drop factor / time of infusion (Minutes)

Flow rate = 300 x 10/ 120 = 25 gtt/min.

Pumo should be set at 25 gtt/min.
