Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer dextrose 5% in 0.45% sodium chloride 1200 mL IV to infuse over 8 hr. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero is applicable. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 150
Rationale: The correct answer is 150 mL/hr.
To calculate the IV pump rate, divide the total volume to be infused (1200 mL) by the total time in hours (8 hr). 1200 mL / 8 hr = 150 mL/hr. This rate ensures the dextrose 5% in 0.45% sodium chloride solution is infused at the prescribed rate over the specified time.
