2) A very dehydrated 20 kg dog is placed on an intravenous drop at 1.5 times more than the standard
rate (standard rate: 50 mL/kg per 24 hours). What is the total daily volume required, and what would
the drip rate be if the giving set delivers 20 drops/mL?
3) A drip rate of 1 drop every 3 seconds is required to sustain a poddle puppy suffering from excessi
heat stroke. If it is to receive 300 mL of fluid, how long will it take to deliver this if the drip factor is
drops per mL?
