What 0.18 percent saline mean?
Saline is basically water with common salt (Sodium Chloride) added. Therefore - 1 litre of saline has 0.18 percent salt.
How much water must be added to a gallon of 10 percent saline solution to create a 2 percent solution?
There is 1 gallon of 10% solution...There is 0% saline in water...The equation is (0.1)(1) + 0x = 0.02 (x+1)...Answer is: 4 gallons. Hope I helped!!:)
Associates are paid 7 dollars per hour for a 40-hour work week Overtime is paid at 1½ times the normal hourly rate If Charlie works a 45 hour week approximately how much money will he earn?
45 hours of work = $332.50 40 hours of work at $7 per hour is $280. 5 hours of work at 1 1/2 times the normal hourly rate is 5 x 10.5 ($52.50)

How much water must be added to 1 liter of a 5 percent saline solution to get a 2 percent saline solution?
At dilution always true:Volume*concentration = amount of solute (= constant, not changing)So 1 (litre) * 5 (%) => 5
What is dextrose 4.3 percent in normal saline 0.18 percent?
it is 1/5 saline
Can you give example of three IV solution?
1. D5W=Dextrose 5% in water 2. Normal saline=0.9% NaCl 3. 1/2 Normal saline=0.45% NaCl
Is it appropriate to dilute hydromorphone with normal saline for IV push of 1-2 mg?
No
How long does it take to transfuse packed red blood cells?
It depends on the scenario, PRBC infusers can infuse 1 unit in 5 minutes in trauma settings with acute blood loss while people who have CHF and are at risk volume overload it can take as long as 2-3 or more hours to infuse 1 unit.
What is the contraindication of normal saline solution?
1- Sever Hypertension ( High Blood Pressure ) 2- Pulmonary Edema
How much does 1 liter normal saline cost?
at my hospital, it costs $50. that's right, fifty dollars!
Can you add saline to a chlorine pool to clear algae and soften the H2O without totally converting to a saline system?
Yes you can. Start with 1/4 the normal amount that a salt pool would use.
If 1 L of normal saline is charted over 9 hours and the drop factor is 15 how do you calculate the drip rate?
Do the liter as a 1000cc and the hours in minutes (9x60=540) and divide that and then x the drip factor. So, it would be 1000 divided by 540 x 15= 27.7
What is in 0.45 NS?
It is a Hypotonic solution that is 1/2 of the normal isotonic 0.9% NS. NS stands for Normal Saline. 0.45% NS pulls water out of the blood and puts it into your cells.
How many hours from floirda to Mexico?
1, 1/2 - 2 hours on a normal jet plane.
What is an example of a hypotonic solution?
A hypotonic solution has less than normal tension: hypo = less, and tonic = tonicity, the concentration of solute. Examples of hypotonic solutions: (1) Sports drinks that contain salts / electrolytes (2) physiologically: a. 0.45% NaCl (half-normal saline solution); since normal saline is 0.9% NaCl, any solution less than 9% is hypotonic b. dextrose 2.5% in water c. dextrose 2% in water
What is IV made of?
IV just stands for IntraVenous, so almost any fluid can be given that way, but the standard solution that is given is saline to which you can add whatever additive you need. Typical saline solution just contains sterile water and sodium chloride (salt). The concentration of the salt can vary depending on what it is needed for. Two of the more common concentrations are 0.9% (normal saline) which is isotonic to blood, and 0.45% (also called 1/2 normal saline), which is hypotonic to blood. Another common additive to saline is dextrose, which like saline comes in carrying concentrations. There are also some specialty IV solutions such as Ringers Lactate and Acitated Ringers, that are used in certain circumstances.
