Flow rate = 16.67 gtts/min rounded to 17 gtts/min

Explanation:

In order to calculate the flow rate, the following formula will be used.

Flow rate (gtts/min) = $\frac{Volume (mL)}{Time (minutes)} Drop factor (gtts/mL)$

50 mL of fluid in which Ciprofloxacin is dissolved is taken as volume.

KNOWN DATA:

Volume = 50mL

Time = 45 minutes

Drop factor = 15 gtts/mL

Flow rate = unknown

CALCULATION:

Plugging the known values in the formula,

Flow rate (gtts/min) = $\frac{Volume (mL)}{Time (minutes)} Drop factor (gtts/mL)$

Flow rate = $\frac{50}{45}$ x 15

Flow rate = 16.67 gtts/min.

Mashcka [7]

The healthcare provider will prescribe oxytocin to the client for whom the LPN has reported that the uterine massage is ineffective.

The reason to provide oxytocin in case of the ineffectiveness of the uterine massage is it plays a major role in the contraction of the uterus during pregnancy. The two main effects of oxytocin in the body are contractions of the uterus (uterus) during childbirth and breastfeeding. Manufactured oxytocin is sometimes administered to induce labor if it has not started spontaneously, or it can be used to increase labor to aid delivery. Commonly manufactured oxytocin is given to hasten labor and reduce the risk of heavy bleeding from contractions.
