An elderly client has an order for 1,000 mL D5W at 100 mL/hr. The nurse assigned to the client attached IN tubing to the IV with drop factor of 10 gtt/mL without checking the package of IV tubing. As a habit of the previous institution where she worked, the IV floe rate was calculated based on drop factor 20 gtt/mL. At the beginning of the next shift, the nurse making rounds noticed that the client was having difficulty breathing and...
