Anurse is preparing to administer ampicillin 500 mg in 50 ml of dextrose 5% in water (d5w) to infuse over 15 min. the drop factor of the manual iv tubing is 10 gtt/ml. the nurse should set the manual iv infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (round the answer to the nearest whole number. use a leading zero if it applies. do not use a trailing zero.)

Given:

Volume to be infused = 50 ml

Time period = 15 min

Drop factor = 10 gtt/ml

To determine:

Flow rate in gtt/min

Explanation:

Flow rate = volume infused * drop factor/time

                = 50 ml * 10 gtt.ml-1/ 15 min = 33.33 gtt/min

Ans: Flow rate = 33 gtt/min

These acts all helped the countries form new states. These acts all helped to move frontiers further westward.
