Question 1 of 5
A client receives a prescription for 2 liters of lactated Ringer's IV to be infused over 12 hours. The IV administration set delivers 20 gtt/mL. How many gtt/min should the nurse regulate the infusion? (Enter numerical value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest whole number.)
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Calculation: 2 liters = 2000 mL, 2000 mL × 20 gtt/mL = 40,000 gtt, 12 hours = 720 minutes, 40,000 ÷ 720 = 55.56, rounded to 56 gtt/min.
