Exam 18: Iv Flow Rate Calculation

Set calibration is 20 gtt/mL. Administer 72 mL in 53 minutes. Calculate the gtt/min to the nearest whole number.

The ordered infusion is 1900 mL in 24 hours using a 15 gtt/mL set. After 11 hours, 800 mL remains. Calculate the rate (to the nearest whole number) to complete the infusion on time.

The order is to infuse 94 mL in 20 minutes using a 60 gtt/mL set. Calculate the gtt/min to the nearest whole number.

The order is to infuse 800 mL over 3.5 hours beginning at 9 pm. At 10:30 pm, the IV has infiltrated with 525 mL remaining in the bag. The IV was restarted at 11 pm. Calculate the flow rate (to the nearest whole number) using a 10 gtt/mL set to complete the infusion on time.

The available set is calibrated to 15 gtt/mL. Calculate the flow rate (to the nearest whole number) for an infusion of 360 mL in 1.5 hours.
