Question 1 of 5

A client with oliguria has an order for 1000 mL of 0.9% NS over 3 hours. The tubing drop factor is 10 gtt/mL. How many gtt/min should be given? (Round to the nearest whole number. use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 56 gtt/min.
To calculate the infusion rate in gtt/min, we first convert the total volume to be infused into mL/min. 1000 mL over 3 hours is 333.33 mL/hour or 5.56 mL/min.
Then, we multiply this by the tubing drop factor (10 gtt/mL) to get 55.6 gtt/min, which rounds up to 56 gtt/min. This rate ensures the client receives the correct amount of fluid over the specified time without overloading or underdosing. Other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the infusion rate based on the given parameters.
