    Calculation

    A nurse is preparing to administer magnesium sulfate 1 g/hr via continuous IV infusion to a client. Available is magnesium sulfate 40 g in 0.9% sodium chloride 1,000 mL. 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

    Step 1 is 1 g/hr ÷ (40 g/1000 mL) = 25 mL/hr. Final answer is 25 mL/hr.
