Now that X-plane 10 has become a serious contender in the market, as their panels and aircraft/gauge creation, and flying models are great. I was considering going over to that from FSX.
Apr 13, '11 by McGyverRN, MSN, NP. Each facility will have a drug guide that will tell you how fast to push meds. At my facility, we give Lasix at a rate of 40mg/minute. Check your google reference again...perhaps that was an unusual circumstance. Lasix 40mg iv push is a very common dose. I have given doses as high as 160mg, but that is very rare.
Below is an example of an infusion rate schedule for infliximab diluted in a 250mL volume: 40mL/hr. for 15 minutes, then if tolerated, increase to: 80mL/hr. x 30 minutes, then if tolerate, increase to: 160mL/hr. for the duration of infusion. Flush to ensure all medication in the IV tubing is administered.
