ATI RN Fundamental Proctored Exam With NGN Graded Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer 0.9% sodium chloride (0.9% NaCl) 250 mL IV to infuse over 30 minutes. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 10 gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min?

Correct Answer: 83

Rationale:
To calculate the drip rate, we can use the formula: Drip rate = (Volume to be infused in gtt) / Time in minutes. In this case, the volume to be infused is 250 mL, and the time is 30 minutes. Convert 250 mL to drops: 250 mL x 10 gtt/mL = 2500 gtt. Now, divide 2500 gtt by 30 minutes to get 83.33 gtt/min. Since we can't administer a fraction of a drop, we round down to the nearest whole number, which is 83 gtt/min. This rate ensures the 0.9% NaCl solution is administered accurately over the specified time. Other choices are incorrect because they do not result from the correct calculation based on the given information.
