Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer 0.9% 1L to infuse over 8 hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing set is 15 gtts/ml. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 31
Rationale: Flow rate (gtt/min) =
Total volume / Time × Drop factor (gtt/mL).
Total volume = 1000 mL, Time = 8 hours × 60 minutes = 480 minutes, Drop factor = 15 gtt/mL. Flow rate = 1000 / 480 × 15 = 31.25, rounded to 31 gtt/min.
