Answer #1

Total amount of volume of IV fluid is 500ml

Flow rate = 33gtt/ min

Drop factor = 10gtt/ml

Formula :-

Flow rate = Total volume of IV fluid / Total time of infusion × drop factor

33 gtt/ min = 500 ml / Total time × 10gtt/ ml

33gtt / min = 5000gtt / total time

Total time = 5000 / 33 mins

= 151 .5 mins will be taken by the infusion to finish

Total of 2hour 32 mins

It will finish at 11:32 pm .
