What is the IV flow rate formula?
Answer
The IV flow rate formula consists of Rate, Total volume and Total time. This formula is used to determine the programming of an infusion pump or counting drops manually. Setting the equal up as follows would be to set the Rate(mL/hr)= Total volume(mL)/ Total Time(Hours). The units are crucial in this equation so the use the appropriate units when using this equation.
