A nurse is preparing to administer 400 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride IV over 8 hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 60 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.)
Explanation
To calculate the infusion rate in gtt/min, the nurse needs to use the formula:
Infusion rate (gtt/min) = Volume (mL) x Drop factor (gtt/mL) / Time (min)
Plugging in the given values, we get:
Infusion rate (gtt/min) = 400 mL x 60 gtt/mL / 480 min
Simplifying, we get:
Infusion rate (gtt/min) = 50 gtt/min
Therefore, the nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver 50 gtt/min.
