    Calculation

    A nurse is administering a unit of RBC 350 mL over 3 hr to a client who has anemia. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hr? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

    mL/hr

    Explanation & Rationale

    Total Volume to Infuse = 350 mL Total Infusion Time = 3 hr Calculate the Flow Rate in mL/hr Flow Rate (mL/hr) = Total Volume (mL) / Total Infusion Time (hr) = 350 mL / 3 hr = 116.6667 mL/hr Round to the Nearest Whole Number = 117
