A client with dehydration is prescribed a potassium chloride infusion at 10 mEg/hr. Potassium chloride 80 mEq is mixed with 1 liter ofnormal saline. The nurse should regulate the infusion pump to deliver how many mL/hour? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is required, round to the nearest whole number.)

Given: Total dose of Potassium Chloride: 80 mEq Volume of solution: 1 liter (1000 mL) Infusion rate: 10 mEq/hour Step 1: Determine the concentration of Potassium Chloride in the solution: Concentration (mEq/mL) = Total Potassium Chloride (mEq) / Volume of solution (mL) Concentration (mEq/mL) = 80 mEq / 1000 mL Concentration (mEq/mL) = 0.08 mEq/mL Step 2: Calculate the infusion rate in mL/hr: Infusion rate (mL/hr) = Infusion rate (mEq/hr) / Concentration (mEq/mL) Infusion rate (mL/hr) = 10 mEq/hr / 0.08 mEq/mL Infusion rate (mL/hr) = 125 mL/hr
