Question

An IV infiltrates with 330 mL remaining in the bag. It was restarted at 1015 at a rate of 30 mL/hr. What is the IV completion time?

Answer 1

Answer:

11 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

I came up with this answer by dividing the IV infiltrate in the bag by the rate. This gave the completion time.

Volume of IV infiltrate = 330ML

Rate at which it was running = 30 ML/hour

The IV completion time = volume/rate

= 330 ML/30 ML

= 11 hours

Therefore the IV completion time is 11 hours.
