Chemical cool packs can be used more than once.<br> True false
Shkiper50 [21]
False Chemical cold packs should be stored in a refrigerator.

A chemical cold pack consists of a bag within a bag. The inner bag contains water. The outer bag typically contains urea or ammonium nitrate. When the inner bag is broken, the water mixes with the chemical in the outer bag, dissolving it. As the chemical dissolves, this is an endothermic reaction. As the reaction absorbs energy, the device cools down.

This cooling will occur independent of whether the cold pack is stored in the refrigerator or not.

An order is written for 500 ml of ns to infuse at 40 gtt/min. how long would it take to infuse the ns if the set delivers 10 gtt
Artemon [7]

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.
