the physician has ordered 1000 mL D5W with 40,000 units of heparin. you are to infuse it at 1,500 units/hour. How many mL/hr will you deliver?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer - Heparin solution = 40000 units

D5W quantity = 1000 ml

Amount of medication per ml = 40000 /1000

= 40 unit per ml

Heparin infusion rate = 1500 units per hour

Ml per hour solution = 1500 / 40

= 37.5 ml per hour

So delivery in ml/ hour = 37.5 ml /hour
