Calculate the drip rate in drops/minute for 50 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride containing 1 g of Ancef to be infused over a period of 30 minutes. The tubing has a drop factor of 60 drops/ml
Step 1: Amount of fluid divided by hours to administer = ml/hr
50 mL x 60 gtts/mL = 3000
30 min = 30 = 100 = 100 gtts/min
Step 2: ml/hr x Drop Factor (gtts/ml)
60 min = gtts/min
