Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to administer Ringer's lactate via continuous IV infusion at a rate of 120 mL/hr. The manual IV tubing's drop factor is 60 gtt/mL. How many gtt/min should the nurse set the manual IV infusion to deliver? How many gtt/min for Ringer's lactate infusion?

Correct Answer: 120

Rationale: The correct answer is 120 gtt/min.
To calculate the infusion rate in gtt/min, you first convert the hourly rate to minutes by dividing 120 mL/hr by 60 min/hr, which equals 2 mL/min.
Then, multiply the mL/min by the drop factor of 60 gtt/mL to get the answer of 120 gtt/min. This ensures the correct amount of Ringer's lactate is delivered per minute. Other choices are incorrect because they do not follow the correct calculation steps or involve incorrect conversions, leading to inaccurate infusion rates.
