For an IV rate of 100 ml per hour, you would set the IV pump to deliver 1.67 ml per minute (100 ml divided by 60 minutes). If you are using a standard IV administration set with a drip factor of 10 drops per ml, this would equal 16.7 drops per minute (1.67 ml multiplied by 10 drops). You would typically round this to the nearest whole number, so in this case, it would be 17 drops per minute.
Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. So, 150 ml over 1 hour means 150 drops per hour. With a drip factor of 10 drops per milliliter, that's like 1500 drops in total. Divide that by 60 minutes, and you get 25 drops per minute. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
100mL equals 2,000 drops.
60ml x 15 drops/ml = 900 total drops 900 total drops divided by 60 minutes (1 hour) = 15 drops per minute
A minute contains 1/60th of an hour.
50*10 = 500 drops.
Drop size may vary, but it takes about 25 drops from an oldfashioned glass eyedropper to provide 1ml. Thus it would take about 3,750 drops to yield `150 ml.
To calculate the number of drops per minute, you would multiply the amount of IV fluids per day by the number of drops per mL (1400mL/day x 15 drops/mL). Next, divide this total by the number of minutes in a day to find the drops per minute.
