ATI Pediatrics Final Exam 2025 Questions
Extract:
A nurse is preparing to administer dextrose 5% in water (DSW) 100 mL to infuse over 1 hr. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 15 gtt/ml.
Question 1 of 5
The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)
Correct Answer: 25
Rationale: The correct answer is 25 gtt/min because the standard conversion for IV flow rate is 1 mL = 15 gtt. Given that the infusion is to be set at 100 mL/hour, we first convert this to mL/min (100mL/60min = 1.67 mL/min).
Then, we multiply this by the drop factor (15 gtt/mL) to get the total drops per minute, which equals 25 gtt/min. Other choices are incorrect as they either do not follow the standard conversion or involve incorrect calculations.
