IV Fluid Calculations | Drops/min • ml/hr • IV drip formula | NORCET exam tips

Master IV fluid calculations, Drops/min • ml/hr • IV drip formula — fast, accurate and exam-ready. If you are preparing for NORCET exam, Nursing Officer exams or clinical nursing assessments, this video teaches the exact formulas, step-by-step methods and high-yield tricks to solve ALL IV fluid calculation questions under pressure. What this video covers (must-know): • Flow rate (drops/min) formula and worked examples. • ml/hr (mL per hour) calculation for pumps. • Infusion time formula to convert volume ↔ time. • Correct use of drop factor (macro vs micro vs BT set). • Pediatric tips (microdrip 60 gtt/ml) and rounding rules. • Top exam traps and how to avoid them. Key formulas (memorize): • Drops/min = (Volume in ml × Drop factor) ÷ Time in minutes • ml/hr = Volume in ml ÷ Time in hours • Infusion time (hrs) = Total volume (ml) ÷ ml per hour Solved examples (step-by-step): 1000 ml NS over 8 hr, macro set 15 gtt/ml → convert 8 hr = 480 min → drops/min = (1000×15)/480 = 31 drops/min. 500 ml RL over 5 hr, micro set 60 gtt/ml → drops/min = (500×60)/300 = 100 drops/min. 1200 ml at 100 ml/hr → Infusion time = 1200 ÷ 100 = 12 hours. 500 ml over 4 hr → ml/hr = 500 ÷ 4 = 125 ml/hr. Common exam-style questions included: • Calculate drops/min for adults and pediatrics. • Convert L → ml and hr → min under time pressure. • Use correct drop factor for micro vs macro sets. • Pump ml/hr vs manual drops: know when drop factor is irrelevant. High-yield tips & traps: • Always convert hours to minutes when asked for drops/min. • Drop factor matters only for drops/min, not for ml/hr. • Microdrip (60 gtt/ml) usually used in pediatric or precise infusions. • Watch unit mismatches (mg vs mcg, L vs ml) — these cost marks. • Round to the nearest whole drop; for pumps you may use decimals per question direction. Who should watch: NORCET aspirants, nursing students (BSc/GNM), nursing officers, exam tutors and clinical nurses who want error-free IV calculation skills. 🔔 Subscribe for more high-value nursing videos 👍 Like & Share with your fellow nursing aspirants 📩 Comment down your topic request for the next video! 00:00 Introduction 00:19 Type 1 2:24 Question 1 3:21 Question 2 4:18 Question 3 5:18 Question 4 6:19 Question 5 7:28 Question 6 8:50 Type 2 9:28 Question 7 10:29 Question 8 11:39 Type 3 12:15 Question 9 12:48 Question 10 13:45 Summary #norcet9 #nursingeducation #aiims #nursingofficeronline #norcetmcq #nursingexam #fundamentalofnursing #ivfluidcalculations #ivdriprate #norcet #nurseprep #ivtherapy #mlperhour #dropsperminute #microdrip #macrodrip #ivcalculation #ivmath #ivinfusion #nursingtips #medsafety #drugcalculation
