Q

CALCULATE THE FLOW RATE FOR 1200 ML OF NS TO BE INFUSED IN 6 HOURS WITH A DROP FACTOR OF 15 GTTS/ML

A

ML/MIN*GTTS/ML=Y
1. CONVERT 6 HOURS TO MINUTES = 360 MINUTES
2. 1200 ML / 360 MIN * 15 GTTS/ML = 50 GTTS/MIN

Q

A nurse is preparing to administer 174 mg of amoxicillin/clavulanate oral suspension to a client. The amount available is amoxicillin/clavulanate 125 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)

A

X ML = 125 MG / 5 ML = 174 MG / X
X ML = 125X = 870
X ML = 125X / 125 = 870 / 125
