order: infuse heparin 1000 U/hr continuous IV. available: heparin 25000 U in 250 ml 0.45% NS. what is the pump setting

Expert Solution

EQUATION

Total unit of heparin units/hour

------------------------------------ = -------------------

Total amount of infusion (mLs) mLs/hour

Order: heparin 1000 unit /hr IV

Standard solution: 250000 unit heparin in 250 ml 0.45 NS

CALCULATION

25000 total unit of heparin 1000U/h

-------------------------------------------- = --------------

250 total amount of infusion (mLs) XmLs/h

25000 1000

----------- = ------------

250 X

Cross multiplication

100 1000

------- = -----------

1 X

100X = 1000

X =10mL/hr

Infusion pumping setting should be 10 ml/hr
