Answer:
42gtt/m
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
Flow rate in gtt/min = (Total fluid in ml × Drop factor) ÷ (Total hours × 60)
Where, Total fluid in ml = 2,000ml
Drop factor = 15gtt/m
Total hours = 12hours
By putting the following value in the formula, we get
Flow rate in gtt/min = (2,000 × 15) ÷ (12 × 60)
= 30,000 ÷ 720
= 41.67 or 42gtt/m
