A 5-kg dog was infused with a drug with the strength of 20 mg/ml. in the last 12 hours the dog has received 15 ml. calculate the rate of infusion.
Solution:- Given that,
C.F.= (15/12) = 1.25
dog weight = 5-kg ; strength = 20 mg/ml,
the last 12 hours the dog has received 15 ml
the rate of infusion =?
5 kg * 20 mg/ml = 100 ml
100 ml* (15) = 1500 ml/hr
1500 ml/hr *1.25 = 1875 ml/ hr
the rate of infusion = 1875 ml/ hr
