calculate the drop rate of an IV if 1000mL of a 5% glucose solution is to be administered over a period of a 8h and the drop factor is 20 gtt/mL

Order. 1000 mL of 0.9 NSS with 20 meq potassium to inguse over 12 hours with an iv set that delivet 15 gtt/mL How many gtt/ min will infuse round to nearest whole number

A 65 kg patient is diagnosed with a stemi is to receive an IV bolus dose of abciximab 0.25mg/kg followed by a maintenance infusion of the drug at the rate of 0.125mcg/kg/min. The abciximab is available in 5mL vials containing 2mg/mL. a) How many mL will you administer for the bolus?   b) How many mcg/min will the patient receive during the maintenance infusion?

Mrs B, aged 43 years, weight 56 kg, requires a loading dose of drug B.  The target plasma concentration is 18.9 mg/ L, volume of distribution is 0.5 L/ kg, the salt factor is 0.9 and bioavailability fraction is 1. What is the intravenous loading dose (LD) of Drug B in milligrams (mg)? units - mg LD = Cp desired x Vd                         S x F   Where Cp desired is the target plasma concentration; Vd is the volume of distribution; S is the salt factor and F is the bioavailability fraction

An 84 year old male patient has been given a loading dose of digoxin of 298 micrograms in divided doses by intravenous infusion.  He has a creatinine clearance (Ccr) of 34 ml / min.  What is the maintenance dose (in micrograms) that this patient should receive? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use the formula provided to calculate the maintenance dose.  Maintenance Dose = Peak body stores x % daily loss                                                                             100 Where: Peak Body Stores = Loading Dose % Daily Loss = 14 + Creatinine clearance (Ccr)                                                    5

Calculate the creatinine clearance for Lola, a 69 year old woman who weighs 66kg and has a serum creatinine of 125micromoles/L. Round your answer to 2 decimal places Cockroft Gault equation: [ X (140-age) x (weight in kg)] / serum creatinine (in micromole/L) Where X = 1.04 for females and X = 1.23 for males

Acute lymphatic leukemia can respond well to methotrexate given 2 1/2 mg per kilogram every 14 days by IV rounding to the nearest whole number. What would be the appropriate dosage of methotrexate to administer biweekly to a patient weighing 110 pounds?

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?
