Answer:
the patient receiving is 15 mg/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
infusing = 30 mL/hr
drug mixed = 250 mg
D5W = 500ml
to find out
How many mg/hr is the patient receiving
solution
we know infusing rate is = 30 mL/hr ...................1
and we know mixed is = [tex]\frac{250mg}{500ml}[/tex] ..............2
so
now we multiply both equation 1 and 2
patient receiving = [tex]\frac{250mg}{500ml}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{30ml}{hr}[/tex]
solve we get here
patient receiving = [tex]\frac{15mg}{hr}[/tex]
so the patient receiving is 15 mg/hr
