A nurse in a pediatric clinic is assessing a toddler at a well-child visit. Which of the

surgical procedure that resulted in a temporary loss of vision. Which of the
following interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

following actions should the nurse take?

, A nurse is caring for a toddler and is preparing to administer 0.9% sodium chloride
100 mL IV to infuse over 4 hours. The drop factor of the manual IV tubing is 60
gtt/mL. The nurse should set the manual IV infusion to deliver how many gtt/min?
(Round the answer to the nearest whole number. use a leading zero if it applies. Do
not use a trailing zero.) - 25 gtt/min
*Dimensional Analysis
Step 1: What is the unit of measurement to calculate? gtt/min
Step 2: What is the volume needed? 100 mL
Step 3: What is the total infusion time? 4 hours
Step 4: Should the nurse convert the units of measurement? Yes (min does not
equal hr)
Step 5: Set up an equation and solve for X.
X = Quantity / 1 mL x Conversion (hr) / Conversion (min) x Volume (mL) / Time
(hr)
X gtt/min = 60 gtt/1 mL x 1 hr/60 min x 100 mL/4 hr
X = 25
Step 6: Round if necessary.
Step 7: Reassess to determine whether the amount to administer makes sense. If
the prescription reads 100 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride IV to infuse over 4 hours,
it makes sense to administer 25 gtt/min. The nurse should set the manual IV
infusion to deliver 0.9% sodium chloride IV at 25 gtt/min.
