One macrodrop is equal to 60 microdrips. This conversion is commonly used in intravenous (IV) therapy and fluid administration to ensure accurate dosing. The microdrip and macrodrip systems allow for precise control of fluid delivery rates based on patient needs.

A microdrip administration set delivers 1ml of fluid after every------drops?

60. A microdrip set allows 60 gtt (drops) per ML.


What is a micro-drip?

A microdrip is 60 gtt/ml.


Intravenous therapy 17mlhr how many gtts min?

You first need to find out what drop factor you are working with (how large the drops are). They normally range from about 10-20 gtt per mL (macrodrop) or 60 gtt per mL (microdrop). Your question cannot be answered until you know how many drops it would take to add up to your full 17 mL IV administration.


What is the difference between micro drip and macro drip?

The drop factor differs (# of gtts/mL). A set that delivers large drops per mL (10-20 gtt/ml, usually 15) is called macrodrip set. One uses smaller gtts (60gtt/mL) is called microdrip. Usually the macrodrip set is used if the IV rate is to infuse > 100ml/hr. Vice versa, Microdrip < 100ml/hr volume. Here is the drip rate calculation: Volume (mL)/ time (min) x drip factor= gtt/min ranges 30-100 gtt/min.


What is IV macro-drip rate?

The IV macro-drip rate refers to the rate at which a large drop IV administration set delivers fluids or medication. It is typically used to deliver larger volumes of solution more quickly than micro-drip tubing. The rate is usually set in drops per minute based on the desired infusion rate.

How do you calculate drip rate of an IV solution?

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
