17. You are going to start a nitroglycerine drip for your patient, but your partner forgot to re-stock after
the last call in which you used your nitro drip set-up. So, you must place 30 mg of nitroglycerine into a
100 mL bag and deliver it via microdrip tubing at a rate of 40 mcg/min. How many ml will you add to your
bag? How many ml per hour will be delivered to the patient in order to satisfy the need? How many
drops per minute will that be if you must do it by hand?
10ml
NITROGLYCERIN
ertion USP
0mg (5 mg/m
(d) What is the rule and regulation of sample retention?
Why do you think that samples from urine should be tested within 2 hours of collection, or if not possible, that the sample should be refrigerated?
