How this service works
INS gravity drip rate: gtt/min = (volume_ml × drop_factor_gtt_ml) / time_min, rounded half away from zero to an integer. Drop factor 10, 15, or 20 gtt/mL macrodrip or 60 gtt/mL microdrip. Also reports mL/hour. Not a pump program, drug order, or device. Deterministic published arithmetic with citation.
Output
Returns the gravity drip rate as an integer in drops per minute (rounded half away from zero using the formula gtt/min = (volume_ml × drop_factor_gtt_ml) / time_min) and the equivalent flow rate in mL/hour, with a citation to the published arithmetic.
Example use cases
Nursing IV rate verification
“I need to manually set a gravity IV for 500 mL of normal saline over 2 hours using a 20 gtt/mL macrodrip tubing — what's the drip rate in drops per minute?”
Pediatric microdrip calculation
“Calculate the drip rate for a 250 mL pediatric IV bag running over 360 minutes with a 60 gtt/mL microdrip set — I need gtt/min and mL/hour.”
Field nursing training scenario
“For a training exercise: a 750 mL bag needs to infuse over 6 hours using a 10 gtt/mL set — what's the drops per minute rate the student should count?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.magentlab.com/api/calc/iv_dripWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, cited, arithmetic IV gravity drip rate calculation (gtt/min and mL/hour) without clinical decision-making, drug dosing, or pump programming. Ideal for nursing training tools, clinical calculators, EHR integrations, or agent workflows that must verify manual gravity infusion setup against a published formula. Prefer this over general-purpose math when you want a purpose-built, auditable medical arithmetic endpoint with standardized drop factor validation (10, 15, 20, 60 gtt/mL only).
Side effects
- volume_ml outside 1–10000 range — clamped or rejected
- time_min outside 1–1440 range — clamped or rejected
- drop_factor_gtt_ml not one of 10, 15, 20, or 60 — validation error
- Missing required query parameters — HTTP error response
- Non-integer drop_factor_gtt_ml — schema validation failure
