Basic rounding of decimal points: .4 or less goes down

What should be rounded

IV rate per hour: IV 1 liter every 12 hours = 83.3 ml per hour. Should be rounded to 83 ml per hour.

Rationale: IV rates should not be set with a decimal. Even if the pump allows it, it can lead to errors in setting the
pump and could lead to significant errors in volume delivered.

IV rates per hour for a dose of medication:

Rationale: IV rates for medication being delivered by IV infusion should not be set with a decimal. Even if the pump
allows it, it can lead to errors in setting the pump and could lead to significant errors in volume and amount of
medication delivered.
Examples:

• Rocephin 1 gram in 200 ml over 90 minutes = 133.3 ml per hour – should be rounded to 133 ml per hour
• Heparin 20,000 units in 250 ml at 1100 units per hour = 13.75 ml per hour – should be rounded to 14 ml per hour
• Dopamine 400mg in 250 ml at 7mcg/kg/min for a 70 kg patient = 18.375 ml per hour – should be rounded to 18 ml per
Drops per minute: 150 ml over 1 hour using 15 gtts/ml tubing = 37.5 gtts per min. Should be rounded to 38
gtts per min.
Rationale: It is impossible to deliver gtts/min in anything other than whole numbers

What should not be rounded

• Kg from pounds should be left 72.5 kg, 68.8 kg. Answers with several decimal places should be rounded to the
nearest 10th. Example: 86.37, round to 86.4. 5lb infant = 2.272. Should be rounded to nearest 10th = 2.3 Kg
Rationale: Rounding when doing weight dosing can significantly alter the amount of medication being delivered.
• Questions that answer the question; what is the dose of medication? Rationale: When calculating a dose, the exact dose of medication is required. Rounding up or down would change
the dose being administered.
Examples

Order: Cefatan 450 mg. Concentration: 1000 mg in 5 ml. How many ml must the nurse administer? Answer 2.25 ml:
The answer is 2.25 = 450 mg, NOT 2 ml. 2 ml would not equal 450 mg. Again it would be reasonable to round to the 10th
2.25 could be rounded to 2.3, but not to 2ml.
Order: Reglan 6mg IVP. Concentration 10 mg in 3 ml. How many ml must the nurse administer? Answer 1.8 ml: The
answer is 1.8 ml = 6 mg, NOT 2 ml. 2 ml would not equal 6 mg.

Use a leading zero before a decimal place: .25 mg should be Math answers should be labeled as appropriate Grams must be written out as grams and not g or G Units must be written out as units and not u or U
