    Calculation

    A client is receiving IV dextrose 5% in water (D5W) at 125 mL/hour and a secondary infusion of pantoprazole 40 mg IV daily. The pharmacy provides a 110 mL premixed solution of pantoprazole to be infused over 15 minutes. The nurse should program the secondary infusion to deliver how many mL/hour? (Enter numeric value only.)

    mL/hour

    Explanation & Rationale

    Step 1: Identify the total volume. 110 mL Step 2: Identify the infusion time. 15 minutes = 0.25 hours Step 3: Calculate the infusion rate. 110 ÷ 0.25 = 440 mL/hour
