Solutions
Expert Solution
Physician order = 1 litre =1000 ml
Time = 8 hours
Drop factor = 15 gtt/ml = 15 gtt/mt
1. Drip rate = total volume to be infused * drop factor/ time in minutes
1000 *15/8*60
1000*15/480
15000/480= 31.25 gtt/min = 31 gtt/min
2. Physician order = 0.5g= 0.5*1000 =500 mg
Available dose = 100 ml
Time 1 hour = 60 min
Drop factor = 15 gtt/min
Drip rate = total volume to be infused * drop factor/ time in minutes
100*15/60 = 25 gtt/min
