The doctor ordered PLR 1L (80/ml hour) for a 78 kg patient. The Surviving Sepsis Guideline indicates that "For patients with sepsis induced hypoperfusion or septic shock we suggest that at least 30 mL/kg of intravenous (IV) crystalloid fuid should be given within the frst 3 h of resuscitation." Does the ordered medication comply with the guideline? If not, what should be the infusion rate of the PLR 1L and how many PLR 1L will be used?
A physician orders an intravenous piggyback infusion of 100 mL of cefoxitin 1 g to run for 30 minutes. A nurse who selects tubing with a drop factor of 15gtt/min calculates that the solution should infuse at a rate of drops per minute (gtt/min).
The order reads: “Infuse 1000 mL of normal saline over the next 8 hours.” The IV tubing has a drop factor of 15 gtt/mL. Calculate the mL/hour rate, and calculate the drops/minute setting for the IV tubing with this gravity infusion.
6) A patient is prescribed a new drug that needs to be infused intravenously. The drug is available as a 20mg/mL solution and is run at a flow rate of 300mg/hour. Assuming that there are 20 drops in each mL, what is the flow rate in drops per minute of the infusion?unit- drops/min
at The provider has ordered D5W 2,500mL to be infused over 24 hours. What rate should the IV pump be set at? 1,000mL solution of D5NS with 20,000 units of Heparin is infusing at 20mL per hour. The IV set delivers 60gtts/mL. How many units of Heparin is the patient receiving each hour?
A 72-year-old adult patient who weighs 78 kg is prescribed by the doctor “Potassium Chloride 40meq in 1L to run for 8 hours” via the peripheral line for a potassium level of 3.3 mEq/L that was drawn this morning. Note: 10 mEq of potassium chloride increases serum potassium levels by approximately 0.1 mEq/.L The concentration of potassium for intravenous administration via a peripheral line should not exceed 40mmol / 500 mL 10 mEq/hr maximum infusion rate; not to exceed 200 mEq dose/24hr Administration rates above 20mmol/hour require cardiac monitoring. How much will the order medication “Potassium Chloride 40meq in 1L to run for 8 hours” raise the patient's potassium level in a day? Is it still within the normal potassium serum levels, which is 3.5–5.0 mEq/L? Does the order comply with the maximum concentration of potassium to be administered peripherally? Does the order’s infusion rate do not exceed the standard maximum infusion rate? Does the order require cardiac monitoring?
