Rates Of Administration - NAPLEX

$25\ \text{gtt/min}$. Applies the drip rate formula by multiplying mL/hr by drop factor and dividing by 60.

$120\ \text{mL/hr}$. Converts drops per minute to mL/hr by multiplying by 60 and dividing by drop factor.

$75\ \text{gtt/min}$. Uses the drip rate calculation, where mL/hr times drop factor divided by 60 yields drops per minute.

$1.6\ \text{mg/mL}$. Divides total drug by total volume to determine the solution's strength.

$1\ \text{hr}=60\ \text{min}$. Provides the essential factor to convert between hourly and per-minute rates in infusion calculations.

$\text{mL/hr}=\frac{\text{mg/hr}}{\text{mg/mL}}$. Divides ordered hourly dose by solution concentration to find the required infusion rate.

$12\ \text{mg}$. Multiplies hourly rate by total hours to compute the overall drug quantity infused.

$\text{mL/hr}=\frac{\text{gtt/min}\times60}{\text{gtt/mL}}$. Multiplies drops per minute by minutes per hour and divides by drop factor to convert to hourly volume.

$\text{gtt/min}=\frac{\text{mL/hr}\times\text{gtt/mL}}{60}$. Multiplies hourly volume by drop factor and divides by minutes per hour to find drops per minute.

$\text{hr}=\frac{\text{mL}}{\text{mL/hr}}$. Divides total volume by hourly rate to determine the duration of IV infusion.

$\text{mL/hr}=\frac{\text{mL}}{\text{hr}}$. Divides total volume by infusion time to yield the hourly flow rate for IV administration.

both. Encompasses memorization of formulas and their practical use in calculating infusion parameters.

$\text{gtt/min}=\frac{\text{mL}\times\text{gtt/mL}}{\text{min}}$. Multiplies total volume by drop factor and divides by total minutes for the drip rate over the infusion period.

$\text{mg/hr}=\text{mg/mL}\times\text{mL/hr}$. Multiplies solution concentration by infusion rate to determine the hourly drug delivery.

$\text{mcg/min}=\frac{\text{mg/hr}\times1000}{60}$. Converts mg/hr to mcg by multiplying by 1000, then divides by minutes per hour for per-minute rate.

$\text{mg/kg/hr}=\frac{\text{mg/hr}}{\text{kg}}$. Divides the hourly dose by patient weight to normalize the infusion rate per kilogram.

$\text{mcg/kg/min}=\frac{\text{mg/hr}\times1000}{\text{kg}\times60}$. Converts mg/hr to mcg by multiplying by 1000, then divides by weight in kg and minutes per hour for per-minute rate.

$\text{mg}=\text{mg/hr}\times\text{hr}$. Multiplies hourly dose rate by infusion time to calculate cumulative drug amount delivered.

$\text{mg/mL}=\frac{\text{mg}}{\text{mL}}$. Divides total drug amount by total solution volume to compute the concentration.

$5\ \text{hr}$. Divides volume by hourly rate to determine the total time needed for complete infusion.

$3.33\ \text{mcg/kg/min}$. Converts mg/hr to mcg/kg/min using the formula with 1000 mcg/mg, divided by kg and 60 min/hr.

$125\ \text{mL/hr}$. Divides total volume by hours to compute the steady hourly infusion rate required.

$24\ \text{mL/hr}$. Divides ordered hourly dose by concentration to obtain the necessary pump setting.

$60\ \text{mg/hr}$. Multiplies concentration by infusion rate to find the hourly drug administration amount.
