Drug administration is an integral part of the nurse’s role [1], and drug calculations are one of the most important nursing care measures [2]. There are various calculating formulas for different drug orders and the multiplicity of these methods has led to the difficulty of various calculations [3] to the extent that one of the most common nursing errors is mistakes in the calculation of drug dosage especially, the infusion rate of drug solutions [4]. A single formula that can comprise all different aspects of the physician's order, drug dose, and type of infusion set used and ultimately can express infusion rate in terms of drops per minute (gtt/min) and milliliter per hour (ml/hr) can partly reduce this problem. Mistakes in calculating the infusion rate are more important in Iran because of the limited financial resources for supplying the infusion pumps and other automatic injecting devices that have the ability of drug calculation and infusion rate. In this research, researchers tried to innovate a simple, uniform and applicable formula that can be used for a wide range of infusions.
