The insulin drip (continuous insulin infusion) is infusing at 1.5 ml per hour. there are 100 units of regular insulin in 100 ml of 0.9% nacl. how many units of insulin will the client receive per hour?

1.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information is as follow

Infusion Rate = 1.5mL/Hr

Infusion Units = x (Not Given)

Insulin Present = 100mL

Units Present = 100 units

Duration = 1Hr

To find the answer we will first find out how much insulin will be consumed in an hour.

Since rate of infusion is 1.5mL/Hr and the time duration is 1Hr, then the total infusion volume can be found by

Now we need to find out how many units there are in 1.5mL of insulin.

To find this answer we use the idea of ratios

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get

0,0
