A physician orders 500 ml of IV solution be administered over 8 hours, if the IV infusionset delivers 15 drops per ml than 15 drops per minute should the nurse administer to the patient.
If a patient was to receive 500 mL in 8 hours, dividing 500 by 8 would mean that the patient would receive 62.5 mL in 1 hour, or 60 min. Setting up the equation, 15 drops/mL/X equals 62.5 mL/60 min; cross-multiplying, the answer will be 15 drops/min.
IV solutions are specially developed liquids that are injected into a vein to forestall or treat dehydration. They are used in individuals of all ages who are sick, injured, dehydrated from exercise or heat, or undergoing surgery.
