(Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the whole number.) 75 mL/60 minutes × 15 gtts/1 mL = 18.75, which rounds up to 19. |
| At what rate in mL/hr, should the infusion pump be set? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the whole number.) 50 mL/30 minutes = X mL/60 minutes. 30X = 50 × 60 = 100 mL/hour. | |
