23. Calculate the flow rates gtt/min using a microdrip set calibrated at 60 gtt/mL. Round to the nearest whole number An order of 300 mL to infuse over 8 hours  

The purpose of the experiment is to

A ___________________ groups design makes it possible to use statistical procedures that remove the effect of extraneous participant variables on the dependent variable and therefore make the data less “noisy” and the effect of the independent variable easier to detect.

39 You are asked to infuse a medication at 25 mL/hr using a 60 gtt/mL microdrip. What is the flow rate gtt/min?    

12. Calculate the 15 second count. (Hint: how many 15 seconds in 1 minute?). Round to the nearest whole number. IV is to run at a rate of 32 gtt/min. What will the 15-sec count be?             

5. Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) is for patients that are unable to eat. These fluids contain lipids that are opaque-white and should be administered through a central venous catheter. True or False     

3. True or False? The slide clamp is used when setting the flow rate.  

6. IV ports must be cleaned with an alcohol swab before a normal saline flush is initiated. True or False    

A key characteristics of the experiment is

18. Calculate the flow rate using gtt/min. Round to the nearest whole number. A set calibrated at 15 gtt/mL to infuse 80 mL/hr
