The total amount of infusion refers to the total amount of liquid that needs infusion, usually in milliliters; The number of drops per milliliter refers to the number of drops required when 1 ml liquid is dripped into the infusion tube, which varies according to the model and specifications of the infusion tube; Infusion time refers to the time required to complete the whole infusion process, and the unit is minutes.
The formula of infusion drops is a mathematical formula used to calculate the number of drops per minute during infusion, which is very important for medical staff, because it can help them accurately control the speed and dose of infusion, thus ensuring that patients can receive treatment safely and effectively.
In practice, medical staff need to determine the total infusion volume and infusion time of patients first. Then, they will choose the appropriate infusion tube and determine the number of drops per milliliter according to its specifications. Finally, by substituting these values into the formula, we can calculate the number of water drops that should be dropped every minute.
By using this formula, medical personnel can control the infusion speed and dosage more accurately and avoid the situation of being too fast or too slow. This helps to alleviate the discomfort of patients and reduce the risks that may occur during infusion, such as excessive infusion or insufficient infusion.
The role of infusion:
1, one of the most important functions of infusion is to quickly replenish body fluids. For patients with dehydration or excessive loss of body fluids caused by various reasons, such as severe diarrhea, vomiting or after surgery, infusion can quickly replenish necessary electrolytes and water to maintain the normal metabolic function of the body.
2. Infusion is an effective way of administration. Some diseases or conditions require patients to absorb drugs quickly. At this time, through intravenous infusion, drugs can directly enter the blood and play a role quickly. This is especially important for first aid, intensive care and chemotherapy.
3. Infusion also helps to maintain the normal pH value of blood and electrolyte balance in the body. This is very important for patients with electrolyte disorder or acid-base imbalance. By adjusting the composition of infusion, doctors can effectively correct these imbalances, thus stabilizing the patient's condition.
4. For patients who can't eat, such as coma, oral diseases or esophageal obstruction, infusion has become an important way to provide nutrition and energy. Infusion of liquid containing glucose, amino acids, fat and other nutrients can ensure that patients' basic energy needs are met.
