A child weighs 14 kg and is dehydrated. The provider orders an intravenous bolus of normal saline 20 mL/kg over 30 minutes.
a. What is the volume of fluids delivered by the end of the bolus?
b. What will the flow rate be?
ANSWER.
a) Calculation of volume of fluid delivered.
Ordered dose = 20 ml/kg.
Weight of the child = 14 kg.
So
Fluid required for a child weight 14 kg = 20 * 14
= 280 ml.
b) Flow rate.
Formula
Flow rate = Total volume(ml) / Time (hr).
Here
Total volume(ml) = 280 ml.
Time (hr) = 0.5 hr (30 min).
As per above formula
Flow rate (ml/hr) = 280 / 0.5
= 560 ml/hr.
