It would take<u> 125 minutes</u> to infuse the ns if the set delivers 10 gtt/ml. By taking the following factors into account: - The volume should be given in milliliters. - Time is expressed in minutes or hours. - Adjust the drop factor in gtts/ml.

Given,  500 ml of ns:

10 x 500 = 5,000 drops

10 drops per milliliter is 10 gtt/mL.

So, for 500 mL, you will receive:

Given that the flow rate is 40 gtt/min,

or 40 drops each minute,

we may calculate the number of minutes by dividing the total drops by 40:

5,000/40 = 125 minutes

How can I ensure that the infusion is administered at the prescribed rate?

If a provider orders an intravenous fluid infusion, this health app can assist you in ensuring that the fluid administered is given at the prescribed rate.

Research iron in the human body and tell me some stuff about it .
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Iron is a mineral that the body needs for growth and development. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen to muscles. Your body also needs iron to make some hormones.

The amount of iron you need each day depends on your age, your sex, and whether you consume a mostly plant-based diet. Average daily recommended amounts are listed below in milligrams (mg). Vegetarians who do not eat meat, poultry, or seafood need almost twice as much iron as listed in the table because the body doesn’t absorb nonheme iron in plant foods as well as heme iron in animal foods.
