The order is for an IV of 500 mL D5NS q10h. The nurse has a microdrip IV tubing set. The flow rate for the IV is 50 gtt/min.
We have the formula
Volume(ml) / Time in minutes x Drop factor(gtt/min)
volume: 500ml, Time in minutes: 10 x 60= 600 minutes
500ml/600 = 0.8333
Microdrip drop factor is 60gtt/ml
0.833 x 60 = 50gtt/min
