I do 25,000\250 gives me 100 and then I take 100x30ml\hr gives me 3000 units per hour, but when I do dimensional analysis 25,000 u\250ml x 30ml\1hr x 1hr\60 gives me 50 it's the same with the other question I cant seem to figure out where to put the hr\min. I understand the question askes for ml\hr or units\hr you set up the question first that way..

Help with a patient who wants to end her life
i never said i wanted to see this person suffer.. every pt is a person and not just a pt.. everyone needs to calm down a bit.. the only thing i was getting at is if she knew or if anyone has told her, sat with her and talked a little with her about the lord.. if she then still rejects and does not want to live.. then be all means stand by her side and pray for her, talk with her, be her loving friend till the time comes. next time she cries and you’re with her, ask her why she cries.. don’t make her write anything.. you ask the questions and have her blink for yes or no.. i dunno, just a thought..

Help with a patient who wants to end her life
she was put on the ventilator against her will.. can anyone tell me why this happened..? if she was meant to die, then she would have died.. i'm just saying that if it's not your time to die and you decide to end it before your time, it's the same as killing yourself.. if you kill yourself, then you will not go to a better place..
