Here is a scenario question..
I have a two way y- connector. One port is running a medication at 4 ml/h. The other port is running a driving fluid at 11 Ml/h. These are the only two things running through my line. This is just a scenario, so don't need to ask why I'm running a driver etc etc.
I have an order to stop running the mediation, but there is medication remaining in the connector (where the two ports join) just proximal to the line... Therefore I need to run a flush to safely infuse the rest of this medication.
what rate do I run it at? Do I run it at 4ml/h? Or do I run it at 15 ml/h?
i guess my question is... When the two connectors join, what rate is the combined fluids running at? :)
