Does anyone have practice IV medication questions that they can give me?

Published

Hello I am in my third year of nursing in a Canadian school and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find some more practice questions. Specifically I am looking for intermittent IV medication calculation questions. My school provided some but I have finished them all and am looking to do more to get a better grasp of the mathematics. I have access to a monograph I just need questions to do.

There's also quite a few links that pop up with a Google search, including dosagehelp.com, which has a practice question of the day sign up.

The given website by Rose Queeen wasn't working on my computer, but below is a another website. Not only does it have "math fun"... but also a review/testing on body systems. Hope it helps.

You need to give 1 gram of ceftriaxone to a septic patient.

Ceftriaxone is a powder that needs to be reconstituted with 10mL of NS and then diluted into a 50mL bag of NS.

The diluted mixture is to be given over 15 minutes using tubing with a drip factor of 15.

At what rate will you set the pump?

To verify that the pump is operating correctly, you count the drops to validate the rate. How many drops will you count over 30 seconds?
