The nurse is caring for a 10-year-old child who weighs 82.2 lb (37.3 kg) and is to receive 2.5 ml/kg/hr of 0.45% nacl solution. how many milliliters per hour should this child receive? record your answer using a whole number.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer would be 93 milliliters.

The same can be explained with the help of the unitary method.

The volume of solution required for 1 kg of weight in one hour = 2.5 milliliters (given in the question).

Thus, the volume of the solution required for 37.3 kg of weight in one hour = [tex]2.5\times37.3[/tex] milliliters

It comes out be 93.25 milliliters.

Thus, around 93 milliliters of the solution should be given to the child of weight 37.3 kg in one hour.
