Hello all,I'm getting ready to start my second semester of nursing school of the 22th of this month. Eash semester we must take a calculations exam....I have always had problems when it came to problems with grains......I'm looking over my practice exam..and dont have a clue how to set up or do this grains problem....can someone show me how to set up grains problems..and how to solve them.
My school uses the formula.....gr i = 60 mg or gr vx = 1000mg.
Here is the problem.
Order NTG gr 1/150 IV stat. Available: NTG 0.4 mg/ml. How many ml's will you give?
Any help would be a blessing....Thanks all.
