Answer #1

Answer : Formula to calculate the flow rate of Infusion Pump is :

Total Volume in ml/Time in hours = Flow rate (ml/hour)

Total Volume of meropenem in ml = 100 ml

Total time over which this volume should be administered = 30 minutes =0.5 hours

Flow Rate= 100/0.5

So the IV pump should be prgrammed for 20 ml/hour.
