If the amount of hydrogen peroxide for 100 mL ¼ strength hydrogen peroxide in normal saline is 25 mL,
then the amount of normal saline is 75 mL.
Step B Calculate: determine the amount of solute needed
C = ¼, V = 100 mL
¼ x 100 mL= St (solute)
25 mL = the amount of hydrogen peroxide
Determine the amount of solvent needed
V - St = Sv
100 mL - 25 mL = Sv (solvent)
75 mL the amount of normal saline
Step C 25 is ¼ the total volume and 25 + 75 = 100, the answer is reasonable.
a. Topical solutions/irrigants
b. Enteral feedings
