ATI 410 Dosage Calculation ( 50 Questions)
Question 1 of 50 :
A nurse is preparing to administer 0.9% sodium chloride IV infusion 1-L bag at a rate of 200 mL/hr for a client who has rhabdomyolysis. The nurse should expect the IV pump to infuse over how many hours? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 5
Total volume to be infused = 1000 mL
Desired infusion rate = 200 mL/hr
To determine the infusion time, we can use the formula:
Infusion time (hours) = Total volume (mL) / Infusion rate (mL/hr)
Substituting the values:
Infusion time = 1000 mL / 200 mL/hr = 5 hours
Therefore, the IV pump will infuse for 5 hours.
