IV therapy is ordered for Mr R. He is to have 2 litres of 0.9% Saline over 12 hours. The IV set delivers 20 drops per ml, calculate the rate of infusion in drops per minute?
Homework Answers
Step 1: According to the given data at first you should calculate mL/hr by dividing the total volume by the number of hours to be infused.
2L (or 2000 mL)
So the time 12 hours = 166.6 or 167 mL/hr
Step 2: Using formula 2
Then 167 mL/hr x 20 gtts/mL
So 60 minutes = 55.6 or 56 gtts/min
