Question

Calculate the number of drops per minute a 2.7-kg kitten requires. The fluid rate is 60 mL/kg/day and the fluid is to be given over 24 hours using a giving set which delivers 60 gtt/mL. Round your answer up to the nearest drop. Calculate maintenance fluid requirements of 60 mL/kg-12h for a 22-kg dog in millilitres. The volume of fluid calculated is to be given over 12 hours. What is the rate (in drops) per minute if the giving set delivers 20 gtt/mL? Round your answer up to the nearest drop. Calculate maintenance fluid requirements at 50 mL/kg for a 15-kg dog in millilitres. The

Step 1

First, we need to calculate the total volume of fluid to be given over 12 hours for the 22-kg dog. - The maintenance fluid requirement is 60 mL/kg-12h. - So, for a 22-kg dog, the total volume would be 60 mL/kg-12h * 22 kg = 1320 mL-12h. Show more…
