I am in my first semester, if a gastro tube feeding is running at 55ml per hour, then in two hours, 110 ml would be in the input. This is a continuous feeding with no shut offs in the two hours. Is this correct? 0 Likes
michw2 Nov 17, 2004 Well if you wanted to run 100ml in 1 hr it would be set at 100ml/hr. If you wanted 100ml to run over 2 hr you would run it at 50ml/hr. I hope this helps. are you given a drop rate or anything else 0 Likes
