3) A solution containing 500,000 units of polymyxin B sulfate in 20 mL of sterile water Injection is added to 500 mL of 5% dextrose iniection. The infusion is to be administered over 2.5 hours. If the administration set calibrates 10 drops/mL. At what rate, in drops per minar should the flow be adjusted to administer the infusion over the designated time interval? (Do not ignore volume contribution due to admixture).

Question 1 An 18yrs old woman from Ananekrom in the Asante- Akyem North District was presented to your consulting room with the following complaints; headache, photophobia, painful and stiff neck as well as vomiting. Upon physical examination, the patient was febrile(temperature, 38°C) with tachycardia. Her CSF sample was taken to the laboratory for further investigation. Her results came out with low glucose estimation of 1.2mmol/L and high protein estimation of 10.0g/dL. Gram staining results show numerous Neutrophils with Gram positive diploccoci- +++ (A) What condition does this patient's laboratory and other Findings suggest?

An IV infusion of 2000 mL D5W was started for a patient beginning at 6:00 AM and was scheduled to run for 12 hours. However, the flow rate of the IV bag was entered incorrectly into the IV pump. At 11:00 AM, 816 mL of D5W remained in the bag. At what flow rate, in mL/hr, should the remaining fluid be given to the patient to complete the administration of the fluid in the scheduled time?
