Question

A client has orders to receive 2 liters of IV fluid over a 24-hour period with ½ this amount to be infused in the first 10 hours of treatment. How many milliliters per hour would the client receive during the first 10 hours of the infusion?

Answer 1

Answer:100 ml/hr

Explanation:

client has orders to receive 2 liters of IV fluid over a 24-hour period

½ this amount to be infused in the first 10 hours of treatment = ½ ×2 lires

= 1 litre =1× 000 ml= 1000ml

If 1000 ml is received in 10hrs

x ml will be received in 1 hrs

x = 1× 1000/10

= 100ml per hr
