Answer 1

Answer #1

Given data

Weight of the patient = 14 kg

Volume of fluid ordered = 20 mL / kg

A) The total volume to be administerd at the end of the bolus can be calculated by

Weight x Volume of fluid ordered per one kg of weight = Total amount of fluid to be given

Thus 14 x 20 = 280 mL

The answer is 280 mL of fluid to be delivered at the end of the bolus.

B) Time of bolus to be given = 60 Minutes

The drop factor is not given for manual flow rate calculation. Thus using formula for electronic flow rate to calculate the flow rate.

The formula for Electronic flow rate( using infusion pump) is

Volume to be infused in mL / Time in minute = Flow rate (mL / min)

280 mL / 60 min = 4.66 or 4.7 mL / min

The answer is The flow rate of 280 mL of solution in 60 minute is 4.7 mL / min.
