What is Infusion?

An infusion may be defined as a process of being extracted some compounds from original products.

The flow rate is calculated as:

Amount of dose given to patient per hour = 20mg/hr.

Total concentration of dose = 500mg.

Total volume in mL = 250mL.

Flow rate = Amount of dose given to patient per hour/Total concentration of dose × Total volume in mL.

            = [tex]\frac{20 mg/hr}{500 mg} * 250[/tex] = 10mL/hr.
