Answer #1

ANSWER.

17) Calculation of time required for the infusion to complete.

             Rate(ml/hr) = Total volume(ml) / Time(hr).

                Time(hr) = Total volume(ml) / Rate(ml/hr).

         Calculation of volume(ml).

                  Formula = Desired dose/Dose in hand *Quantity.

        Ordered dose = 0.1 unit/kg/hr.

         Weight of the patient = 46 kg.

       Desired dose(D) for this patient = 0.1 * 46

                                                                       = 4.6 unit / hr.

                    Dose in hand(H) = 100 unit

                           Quantity(Q) = 500 ml.

     As per above formula

               Volume required = 4.6 / 100 * 500

                                           = 0.046 * 500

                                           = 23 ml.

             Rate = 23 ml /hr.

             Time(hr) = Total volume(ml) / Rate(ml/hr)

                            = 500/ 23

                            = 21.7

                            = 22 hr (Time required to complete the infusion).
