You need to know the drip rate of your tubing (microdrop 60 or macrodrop 10, 15, or 20 - amount of drops per mL of fluid), the amount of fluid to be administered, the time over which it should be infused, as well as if you want your answer to be in drops per minute or milliliters per hour (using a machine or going old school).
You then set up your equation more or less as follows (example using gtt/min, macrodrop tubing 15/1mL, 200 mL of solution over 2 hours) ...
x gtt/min = 15 gtt/1 mL x 200 mL/2 hrs x 1 hr/60 min
Then solve for x...
x= 25 gtt/min
There are a number of medical uses of mannitol which include; * Diuretic - to reduce the volume of extracellular water held by the body * Sodium ion excreting agent * Opening the blood-brain barrier to allow drugs to pass through (e.g Alzheimers) An IV drip of mannitol solution could be used for any of these reasons as well as others.
Doctors would order an IV of Hypertonic solution to provide the patient with extra calories. It is also used in patients who need electrolytes.
There are a few things that is good about IV solution and salt. The body needs salt and water. Not only that but if someone were to be given plain water, their cells would take in too much water and get damaged or burst and that will damage the body. The salt in the IV solution should be about the same percentage of water and salt as healthy cell.
The solution must have the same percentage of water as healthy cells have, or the cells will take in too much water and be damaged/killed.

Typically in an IV (intravenous) drip.
in iv use. the solution contains 0.9% sodium chloride.
He washed his contact lenses in the saline solution. The IV was a saline drip to keep him hydrated.
High blood pressure would lower the administration rate of a gravity IV drip. It would have no real impact on injection via syringe.
Unfortunately, there is more than one macrodrop. They normally range from about 10-20 drop per milliliter (gtt/mL).
IV Drip maybe?
A drip can be used for multiple things:- * A site for the administration of intravenous (IV) injections or infusions. * Fluid replacement. Therefore, how long the drip will be in situ for will depend on the reason for the drip.
"NS" stands for normal saline, which is an IV fluid solution consisting of water with 0.9% sodium chloride dissolved in it. 500 cc means 500 milliliters, or half a liter. A bolus means that it should be given all at once, as fast as the patient's IV will tolerate. For an IV drip like this, that is typically at a rate of 1000 ml/hr. So this order is for a half liter of normal saline IV fluid to be administered quickly over a half hour.

Yes - veterinary technicians need to understand college level algebra because they will be solving equations on a daily basis to calculate things like IV drip rates.
IV therapy is a method of administering fluids into the body via the blood vessels, and it’s the fastest way possible to deliver essential nutrients to your body. Is IV Drips Safe?
