Margaret, an 80 year old, has come in with dehydration. An IV fluid bolus has been ordered of 500 mL of D5 2 NS over 4 hours. Using the infusion set label below, calculate the gravity flow rate in drops per minute. 10 gtts/mL CLEARLINK SYSTEM Continu-Flo Solution Set 110' (2.8 m) 3 Luer Lock Adapter

A patient is getting an IV fluid infusion. He is to receive a total volume of 1000 cc of this fluid. The infusion rate is 50 cc/hr. How many hours will it take to complete the infusion?

A male patient has presented with the following results for spirometry and plasma Po2. What is your diagnosis? (Use your lecture notes to derive the normal range for these parameters. Also note that usually plasma O2 is determined by saturation percentage, not Po2, but humour me here). Parameter Vital Capacity FEV₁ FVC Arterial Po2 Venous Po2 COPD Value 3560 ml 2110 ml 3120 ml 90 mmHg 35 mmHg Pulmonary fibrosis O Pulmonary oedema O Methemoglobinaemia (causes a leftward shift in the oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve)

An IV medication in 60 mL D5W is to be administered in 30 minutes. The drop factor is a microdrop (60 mcgtt/mL). What should be the infusion rate in mcgtt/min?
