A client receives a prescription for a fluid bolus of 0.9% sodium chloride, USP 200 mL to be infused in 30 minutes. How many mL/hr should the nurse program the infusion pump to deliver? (Enter numerical value only.)

To calculate the mL/hr rate for the infusion pump, we can use the following formula: mL/hr = (Total volume to be infused in mL) / (Time in hours) In this case, the total volume to be infused is 200 mL, and the infusion time is 30 minutes, which is equal to 0.5 hours. mL/hr = 200 mL / 0.5 hours mL/hr = 400 mL/hr Therefore, the nurse should program the infusion pump to deliver 400 mL/hr.
