IV Administration Set 20 Drop with Y-Port Injection Sites, 92" Length

The IV Administration Set with 20 Drop and Y-Port Injection Sites is utilized for intravenous infusion of fluids and medications, providing accurate control over infusion rates. The Y-port injection sites allow for the administration of additional medications without disrupting the flow of ongoing infusions. With a length of 92”, this set offers extended reach and flexibility for convenient patient positioning in clinical and hospital environments. Its design enhances patient safety and ensures efficient and reliable drug delivery.

How do you calculate IV flow rate using a 20 drop set?

Use the formula:
Flow rate (gtt/min) = [Volume (mL) x Drop Factor (20 gtt/mL)] ÷ Time (min)
For example: 1000 mL over 4 hours
1000 x 20 ÷ (4 x 60) = 83 gtt/min

When do you use a 20 drop (20 gtt/mL) IV set versus a microdrip (60 gtt/mL) set?

A 20 drop set is typically used in adults for general infusions where faster flow rates are needed. A 60 drop microdrip set is preferred when precise, slower rates are required (pediatrics, critical medications).

The Dynarex IV Administration Set with 20 Drop drip configuration is a versatile and reliable solution for delivering intravenous fluids and medications. Designed for optimal performance in various medical settings, this set includes convenient Y-Port injection sites and an extended length of 92 inches, promoting ease of use and enhanced patient care.
