Dosage Calc: What are IBP medications? Assist for peripheral and central lines?

[Anastasiak]

One of my theory objectives for my Medical Surgical nursing class is asks this:

Calculate dosage and rate of IVPB and IBP medications, utilizing gravity flow or pump. Assist for peripheral and central lines.

It doesn't specify which IVPB and IBP medications to use, so I assume I can pick any number/type of drug and create an example. What I don't understand is the IBP abbreviation. What is that?

Also, what does "Assist for peripheral and central lines" mean?

Here is what I can come up with for IVPB medications:

Order Kefzol 0.5g in 100 mL D5W IV PB to run over 30 min

Drop factor: 20 gtt/mL

What is the flow rate in gtt/min?

V/T x C = 100 mL/30 min x 20 gtt/mL - 67 gtt/min

For an infusion pump, since 100 mL is infused over 30 mins, then 200 mL will infuse over an hour. Set the electronic IVBP regulator to 200 mL/h.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

I googled IBP and came up with Itrathecal Baclofen Pump.

Here is a link talking about IBP therapy Intrathecal Baclofen Pump Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis - WebMD

Charilie, are you saying IBP is the same as IVBP?

JustDeena, I also saw that IBP is an abbreviation for Itrathecal Baclofen Pump . Are the medications the same? are the calculations any different between IBP and IVPB?
