A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following an appendectomy and is prescribed D5 lactated Ringer's at 150 mL/hr by continuous IV infusion for 12 hr.

Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Explanation
Step 1: Calculate the total volume to be infused.
Volume = Rate × Time
Volume = 150 mL/hr × 12 hr = 1800 mL
Step 2: Calculate the total time of infusion in minutes.
Time = 12 hours × 60 minutes/hour = 720 minutes
Step 3: Calculate the drip rate.
Drip rate (gtt/min) = Total volume (mL) / Time (min) × Drop factor (gtt/mL)
Drip rate = 1800 mL / 720 min × 20 gtt/mL
Drip rate = 50 gtt/min
Therefore, the nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver 50 gtt/min.
