what are the formulas to calculate drops rate of a simple dripset, B.T set , and microburette ???
In in simple drip set 15 drops = 1 ml
In Blood Tx Set 12 drops = 1ml
In microdrip set (pediadrip) 60 micro-drops =1 ml
Various Formulae are given below.
1) Simple Calculation Formula is:
Fluid in ml *drops/time in min
2) Drop index Formula is :
Fluid in ml ×drop index/time in min
the drops will come out for one minute !
drop index is 15 for dripset ,, 60 for M.B (pediadrip) and 10 or BT set.
3) FOR BURETTE.. FLUIDS(ml)/TIME(hrs)
4) for DRIP.............FLUIDS(ml)/TIME(hrs) MULTIPLY BY 1/4.....e.g to give 500 ml in 8 hrs it will be approx 62 micro drop/min or 15 macrodrops.
