The patient is to receive 600.0 mL of IV fluid over 8.00 hours. The drop factor for the tubing is 12.0 gtt/mL. What is the correct flow rate setting in drops per minute? (drop gtt)

A nurse was assigned to the medical-surgical ward to care for a 30-year-old female client diagnosed with pneumonia. The patient's primary healthcare provider prescribed 250 mL of D5W to be infused over 2 hours and 45 minutes. The drop factor is 60 drops per mL. To safely administer the prescribed intravenous solution, the nurse should regulate the IV pump for how many drops per minute (drops/minute). Additionally, compute for the mL per hour.
