IV Infusion Rate

Intravenous therapy is the infusion of liquid substances directly into a vein. The infusion rate is the rate at which a solution is administered to the patient.

The infusion rate equals the dosage times the body weight divided by the infusate concentration.

Formula

QuantityVariable["rate", "VolumeFlow"] == (QuantityVariable["d", "IVFlowRate"]*QuantityVariable["W", "Mass"])/QuantityVariable["c", "MassDensity"]

symbol description physical quantity
rate infusion rate "VolumeFlow"
c infusate concentration "MassDensity"
d dosage "IVFlowRate"
W body weight "Mass"
