• mL per hour example: - Order: 0 5\V 250 mL IV during next 2 h by

infusion pum11

Use formula

250 mL = 125 mL/h 2 h

Set pump at 125 ml per hour

How many 30 minutes in 60? Multiply rate by 2.

• For 20 minutes? Multiply by 3

• For 15 minutes? Multiply by 4

• mL per hour with infusion rate of less than one hour example:

- O rder: Ampicillin 500 mg IV in 50 mL

0 5 NS in 30 minute5 by IV pump

I. Think - Controller set by rate of mL per hour - If 50 mL is to be in fused in 30 minute5:

• 100 mL will be infused in 60 minutes

• Set rate of controller at I 00 mL per hour to infuse 50 mL in 30 minutes

2. Use ratio-proponion

50 mL v X mL! h

30 min ' ' 60 min/h

30X = 3,000

30 X = 3,000

30 30 X = 100 mL/ h

• Nurse may not arbitrarily speed up or slow down now rate to catch up IV

Check for institutional policy regarding correcting o ff-schedule IV rates and percentage of variation a llowed - Normally should not exceed 25 percent

• When adding medication to metriset, do not count added med if under 5ml.

Do not lower infusion rates ever. If need more fluid, dilute medication in more fluid in metriset. - Ex. You have to give 4ml medication over

half an hour and the IV is running at 50mUhr.

• You would place the medication in the metriset and bring fluid level up to 25ml. because at a rate of SOmUhr, 25ml will run in half an hour.

• If you have 50ml to run over 30 minutes and the IV is at 10mUhr, you would have to increase the rate to 100mUhr.

If you have 1 OOmL to run over 1 hour and the IV is at 30mUhr, you would have to increase the rate to 100mUhr.

If you have 1 Oml to run over 30 minutes, and the IV is at 60mUhr, you would have to further dilute the medicine for a total of 30ml.

Less than 1 ml , solve for 3 places, round to 2. Ex: 0.894 becomes 0.89

More than 1 ml, solve for 2 places, round to 1. Ex: 1.36 becomes 1.4

5 or over rounds up 4 or less the number stays the same
