Question 437151: you have on hand morphine 500 mg in 500 ml normal saline. you need to administer morphine 80 mg/hour in a continuous IV infusion to a patient with terminal cancer pain. how many milliliters per hour will you set on the controller? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the ratio is 500mg/500ml, or 1mg/ml; and you want to administer 80mg/hr, you should set your rate to 80 millileters per hour to the patient.
