1000ml is ordered to infuse over 8 hours. how many ml/hr will the nurse set the infusion pump

Solutions

Expert Solution

Total volume = 1000 ml

Total time = 8 hrs

Nurse set the infusion pump in ml /hr =Total volume (ml) /total time (hr )=1000/8 (ml/hr)=125 ml /hr.

In case of drp/min-----

Macro drip factor = 20 (adult ) and children =15  

Micro drip factor =60 (both )

Formula=total volume (ml)/total time (min) × 20 for macro drip set but in case of micro drip set 60 is there instead of 20.
