A client is receiving IV DSW at 125 mL per hour and a secondary infusion of pantoprazole 40 mg IV daily. The pharmacy provides a 110 mL premixed solution of pantoprazole to be infused over 15 minutes. The nurse should program the secondary infusion to deliver how many mL per hour?

The total volume of the pantoprazole solution is 110 mL, and the infusion time is 15 minutes. To calculate the infusion rate in mL per hour, convert the time into hours because infusion rates are typically measured in mL per hour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Converting 15 minutes into hours helps in making the units consistent with mL per hour. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, 15 minutes is 0.25 hours (15\/60).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Using the formula for infusion rate, you divide the total volume of the solution by the time it should be infused. This calculation yields the infusion rate of 440 mL per hour.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
