Homework Answers
Solution:
Step 1:
Rate of infusion per min = Volume in mL / Time in min X drop factor
The total amount of medication to be infused = 1440
Time = 24 hours
Time in min = 24 X 60 = 1440 min.
Drop factor = 15 gtts / mL (macro drip set)
Step 2:
By substituting the values on the above formula,
Rate of infusion per min = 1440 X 15 / 1440
= 15 gtts / min.
The rate of infusion is 15 gtts/min.
