Order: NS 1,500 mL IV at 125 mL/h for 12 hours.
Since the drop factor is 20 gtt/mL, the initial flow rate was correctly set at 42 gtt/min. After six hours, 900 mL remain to be infused. The infusion is behind schedule. Compute the new flow rate in gtt/min. so that the infusion will finish on time. If flow rates may not be adjusted by more than 25% of the original rate, to what rate would you reset the drip rate, or would you contact the prescriber instead?
NS 1500ml IV at 125ml/hr for 12 hours
Drop factor = 20gtt/ml
The flow rate = 1500×20/12×60 =41.6
So the 42 gtt/minute is correct.
After 6 hours, 900 ml fluid remaining.
The new flow rate for the next 6 hours = 900/6 = 150 ml/hour
The new flow rate for the next 6 hours = 900×20/6×60 = 50
50 gtt/ minute
The flow rate is not more than 25 % of the initial flow rate. The nurse can set the new rate as 50 gtt/minute.
