Your patient is ordered an IV infusion of $\\var{doseunits}$ units of a drug made up to $\\var{dosevolume}$ mL of normal saline. It is to be given at the rate of $\\var{uph}$ units per hour. At what rate do you set the syringe pump?

[[0]] mL/hr

One way to approach this:

\n

Since there are $\\var{doseunits}$ units in $\\var{dosevolume}$ mL, we have $1$ unit/mL. To get $\\var{uph}$ units/hr we require $\\var{ans}$ mL/hr.

\\begin{align}\\text{Dosage}&=\\frac{\\text{Strength Required}}{\\text{Stock Strength}}\\times \\frac{\\text{Vol}}{1}\\\\&=\\frac{\\var{doseunits}\\text{ units/hr}}{\\var{doseunits} \\text{ units}}\\times \\frac{\\var{dosevolume} \\text{ mL}}{1}\\\\&=\\var{ans} \\text{ mL/hr}\\end{align}
