Order: NS 1500 mL IV at 125 mL/h for 12 hours.

Since the drop factor is 20 gtt/mL, the initial flow rate was correctly set at 42 gtt/min. After six hours, 900 mL remain to be infused. The infusion is behind schedule. Compute the new flow rate in gtt/min so that the infusion will finish on time. If flow rates may not be adjusted by more than 25% of the original rate, to what rate would you reset the drip rate, or would you contact the prescriber instead?
1. Contact the prescriber.
2. 45 gtt/min
3. 21 gtt/min
4. 50 gtt/min
