Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -For example, if you have 1, 000 mL Normal Saline to infuse over 8 hours, take 1, 000 mL divided by 8 hours, to equal 125 mL/hr.
Detailed explanation-2: -If an order was written to infuse a liter (1000 mL) of IV fluid every 8 hours, what rate would the IV pump be set for? The answer is 125 mL/hr.
Detailed explanation-3: -The drop rate is 42 drops per minute. The drop factor is 20 drops per ml. If we divide 42 drops per minute by 20 drops per millilitre, we’ll find out how many millilitres per minute. 42/20 = 2.1 ml per minute. 03-Jan-2023
