    The average flow rate at the mouth of the Amazon is sufficient to fill more than 83 such pools each second. The estimated global total for all rivers is 1.2 × 10 6 m 3 /s (43 million cu ft/s), [ 1 ] of which the Amazon would be approximately 18%.

  3. Infusion pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infusion_pump

    The user interface of pumps usually requests details on the type of infusion from the technician or nurse that sets them up: . Continuous infusion usually consists of small pulses of infusion, usually between 500 nanoliters and 10 milliliters, depending on the pump's design, with the rate of these pulses depending on the programmed infusion speed.

  4. Intraosseous infusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraosseous_infusion

    Intraosseous access has roughly the same absorption rate as IV access, and allows for fluid resuscitation. For example, sodium bicarbonate can be administered IO during a cardiac arrest when IV access is unavailable. [1] High flow rates are attainable with an IO infusion, up to 125 milliliters per minute.

    This is a list of rivers in the continental United States by average discharge (streamflow) in cubic feet per second. All rivers with average discharge more than 15,000 cubic feet per second are listed.

  6. Intravenous therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intravenous_therapy

    Intravenous therapy (abbreviated as IV therapy) is a medical technique that administers fluids, medications and nutrients directly into a person's vein.The intravenous route of administration is commonly used for rehydration or to provide nutrients for those who cannot, or will not—due to reduced mental states or otherwise—consume food or water by mouth.

  7. Y-Set (intravenous therapy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-Set_(intravenous_therapy)

    V-Set: Multiple line IV injection site whereby several lines can be used at the same time for administering drugs to the patient.. In intravenous therapy a Y-Set, T-Set and V-Sets are Y-, T- and V-shaped three-way connector sets made of connecting plastic tubes used for delivering intravenous drugs into the body from multiple fluid sources.

  8. Rate of infusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_infusion

    In pharmacokinetics, the rate of infusion (or dosing rate) refers not just to the rate at which a drug is administered, but the desired rate at which a drug should be administered to achieve a steady state of a fixed dose which has been demonstrated to be therapeutically effective. Abbreviations include K in, [1] K 0, [2] or R 0.

  9. Central venous catheter - Wikipedia

    The equation shows that flow rate (Q) through a rigid tube is a function of the inner radius (r), the length of the tube (L), and the viscosity of the fluid (μ). The flow is directly related the fourth power of the inner radius of the tube, and inversely related to the length of the tube and viscosity of the fluid.
