Order: Regular insulin 12 units/hr IV
Available: Regular insulin 150 units in 150 mL NS
The IV flow rate to deliver this dosage is how many mLs per hour?

Expert Solution

12 units/hour.

150 units/150 ml is available. So, 1 unit/ml is concentration of available solution.

So to deliver 12 units, 12 ml should be delivered.

So, 12ml/hr should be the flow rate to deluver 12 units/hr IV.
