Ml/Hr to Gtt/Min Calculator





Formula

The formula to calculate the conversion from milliliters per hour to drops per minute is:

\[ Gtt/Min = \frac{(Ml/Hr \times D)}{60} \]

What is Ml/Hr to Gtt/Min?

Ml/Hr to Gtt/Min is a conversion from milliliters per hour to drops per minute. This is commonly used in medical settings, particularly in intravenous (IV) therapy, to calculate the rate at which fluids or medication should be administered to a patient. The conversion factor can vary depending on the specific drip factor of the IV tubing being used.

Example Calculation

Example 1:

Step 1: Calculate the drops per minute:

\[ Gtt/Min = \frac{(120 \times 20)}{60} = 40 \text{ drops per minute} \]

Example 2:

Step 1: Calculate the drops per minute:

\[ Gtt/Min = \frac{(80 \times 15)}{60} = 20 \text{ drops per minute} \]
