I like to hang 0.9% NS to gravity when possible because I always thought that the fluids would stop infusing if the IV site blows. A co-worker of mine disagrees and said that IV fluids hung to gravity would continue to flow and infiltrate if an IV site blows.
Continuum mechanics. Fluid mechanics is a branch of physics concerned with the mechanics of fluids (liquids, gases, and plasmas) and the forces on them. Fluid mechanics has a wide range of applications, including mechanical engineering, civil engineering, chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, geophysics, astrophysics, and biology. Fluid mechanics can be divided into fluid statics, the study of fluids at rest; and fluid dynamics, the study of the effect of forces on fluid motion. It is a branch of continuum mechanics, a subject which models matter without using the information that it is made out of atoms; that is, it models matter from a macroscopic viewpoint rather than from microscopic.
