Question 1 of 5
A school-age child who has received burns over 60% of his body is to receive 2,000 mL of I.V. fluid over the next 8 hours. At what rate (in milliliters per hour) should the nurse set the infusion pump?
Correct Answer: 250
Rationale: Dividing 2,000 mL by 8 hours yields 250 mL/hour. This ensures fluid resuscitation meets burn protocol (e.g., Parkland formula) to maintain hemodynamic stability.
