Work out iv infusion time instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Divides the bag volume by the pump rate to give the infusion duration, and shows the matching gravity drip rate.
Infusion time
Time (h) = volume (mL) / rate (mL/h); drops per minute = volume x 20 / minutes on a standard set
Educational estimate only. Not a substitute for professional clinical judgement, and must not be used to make treatment or dosing decisions.
Priming volume is drawn from the bag, so the usable volume is slightly less than the labelled volume.
Calculate each segment separately and add the times together.
