GT infinity pump question

Hi all,

I've started working with a kiddo with an infinity pump. The order says 190ml/hr.

Do I set 190ml/hr as the dose and rate? 
I'm confused.

    You should be contacting your supervisor and your other resources. We cannot verify orders regarding your patient in an on-line platform.  If you are confused on how to operate equipment you need to refer to your agency, orders, and your supervisor.

    never operate anything blindly or without knowing how to use equipment

    I had a patient on a pump 

    the dose was 100mls/hour over 8 hours. 

    The rate is the amount going in per hour. The dose is the total amount given over that time.
