Hello everyone!Im practing nursing math from here and there recently and I dont understand this answer. If anyone who knows better than me, please, it would be very thankful to hear the answer from you! Nipride at 3mcg/kg/min. Patients bwt. 110ib. Bag of Nipride 5DW 50mg/250ml. Gtt factor 60. How fast? So the way I did was...3 * 60 * 50 *60 ---------------200mlbut they said its3 *50 *60------------200mlso they dont multiply 60 which is gff factor. I dont really get it.wouldIs there something that im missing here? Please please let me know! Thank you 0 Likes
