title: Math calculations for intravenous nurses.
abstract: An integral component of intravenous nursing practice is the ability to perform the math calculations required to administer correct doses of medication and solution to patients. Published information aimed at facilitating this process for the I.V. nursing professional has been sparse at best. This article addresses I.V. math calculations from an I.V. nursing perspective and should serve as a ready reference tool in any clinical environment in which I.V. therapy is delivered.
