Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following an appendectomy and is prescribed D, lactated Ringer's at 150 mL/hr by continuous IV infusion for 10 hours. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 12 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min?

Correct Answer: 30

Rationale: The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver 30 gtt/min, calculated as follows:
Total volume = 150 mL/hr × 10 hr = 1500 mL.
Total drops = 1500 mL × 12 gtt/mL = 18000 gtt. Infusion rate = 18000 gtt ÷ (10 × 60 min) = 30 gtt/min.
