- čas přidán 26. 07. 2024
- Dosage calculations made incredibly easy for nursing students. This video shows how to set-up and work IV drip rate calculations with gtt/min factors. I use dimensional analysis to solve these drip factor problems. In nursing school, you will be required to learn dosage and calculations and these are problems you will have to solve.

You made my nursing course wow,,, thanks momaa🙏🙏
True because I graduated nursing but I didn't understand my professors explanation🤣only here
Indeed 😐😳
This woman is helping me concur my nursing school
Lol facts. My instructors get paid to send us these CZcams links to study from 🥴
you have literally walked me through my entire course of nursing school. Now I'm a month away. I know for a fact. if it wasn't for you. I wouldn't be. Best teacher ever? You. Thank you from the deepest chamber of my heart
I completely agree. I have just started nursing school. I truly do not know what I would have done if I did not have your videos to watch. Great teacher. Thank you so much!!
You helped me ACE my pharmacology quiz last week! I literally got A+ for getting all IV calculations correct!!! Thank you.
Haha I’m using this to study for my pharmacology quiz tomorrow 😂
This woman may have been DROPPED right out of heaven!
I thought I would never understand any type of nursing math!! I sat down today determined to learn it, and with only a few of your videos, I have it DOWN! I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you taking time to help me and many others. You are seriously a phenomenal instructor :)
Wow! Thank you so very much for taking the time to leave this awesome comment, Crystal! I'm so happy I could help you understand nursing math :) I wish you the best in your studies!
You are saving nursing students day in and day out! You are honestly a God send so people can finish their dreams confidently! Thank you for breaking things down for us and the dimensional analysis helps SO much! Love you Sarah and appreciate you! 💝
I have spent the last two months in my pharm class scratching my head at these problems, and watching your videos literally saved me and helped me ace my tests and actually understand what I am doing! Thank you, SO SO much for helping me feel like a confident, competent, and capable nursing student.
I just have to leave you one more comment today. I have been studying calculation books for the last 3 days. I have to take a serious drug math test in the next 4 days. I just concluded I'm only going to study your videos because how clear and easy you make things. I wasted a lot of time trying to figure out different methods that just don't click with the way my brain thinks. I wasted a lot of time. Thank you for not wasting my time and thank you for for giving me confidence. I feel less pressure about that test. Sarah, your talent is teaching! Thanks for helping me.
I take the NCLEX this week and want to thank you so much for your videos! I have been watching them for 2.5 years of nursing school! You're such a gifted teacher! THANK YOU
I'm a nursing school student and I began my LPN-RN program a couple weeks ago and needed a refresher for drip factor since I've graduated in 2015 from LPN school. It's true when they say if you don't use it you will lose it, words can't describe how helpful these videos are! thank you so much!
I am a 49 year old returning to schol to become a radiology tech. I am in a class that is "considered" a math class although we are in to medical dosing. The professor is a pain and I have been in tear MANY times this semester - UNTIL NOW !!!!!! THANK YOU Miss Sarah ! You have saved my life !!!!!! Reconstitutions and IV flow rates are now crystal clear to me ! You deserve a RAISE !!!!!
Hello Lisa :) It is so awesome you are returning to school to become a radiology tech...very awesome profession. I'm so glad my videos helped you. This math stuff can be very stressful. Thank you for your very kind words. I wish you the best in your program!
I am older and in Nursing School right now. I have to THANK YOU SO MUCH for simplifying this so much for me!! The dimensional analysis makes more sense to me. You are the BEST!!!
In my culture we call every female that has rescued or stood by you through difficult times or hardship "mama" That doesn't mean anything to do with kids or old. So I will use that phrase to say this. Mama without you honestly wouldn't be thinking of level 3 of nursing school. You pour your heart love and care in this, let me tell you I woke up one day to do an exam with no Idea what to differentiate heart failure, I drive 2 hrs. to school and in 2hrs I was able to listen to you and when that test came with 12 questions on heart failure I was looking for your voice on multiple choice. You have walked me through each and every topic of my nursing school and here is to you as we begin level 3 with dosage calculation. If God every walks around houses in darkness and sprinkle blessings on houses, may he never pass yours. We are here till that day we sit for NCLEX and I will tell you after that 48hrs that we passed.
+Abel B You're so welcome :) Glad I could help and thanks for watching my videos. I wish you the best in your studies!
RegisteredNurseRN omg i just want to begin by saying you are an amazing teacher.... I had a real hard time learning this with 2 days away from finals.... Thank u so much.... I took your quiz and got a 90....again thanks a bunch
I had so much trouble with this class.... Till i began watching your videos.... They are vwry detailed.... Thanks a bunch.... Great teaching skills
Dear Sarah, you are a gifted woman! You also deserve the paychecks of many nursing school teachers!
Math has never been my strong suit, to the point that it was crippling me to going to nursing school. Not fulfilling my dream of becoming a nurse is finally over. Now that my little ones are in school, I finally went back myself. This video was one of the best things I could have seen. In such a short video I managed to learn so much. I even went and did your quiz and got all of them right! I'm so excited! Thank you for helping us-you are a gift!
I've been trying to understand how to calculate drip factor for hours....
this 13 minutes saved my life :)
thank you!
Thank God for letting me run across your page. Yes I’m so happy. I solved the problems before you gave the answer 😂 I can’t stop smiling. Thank you ❤
I’ve been scratching my head over this stuff for the past 2 hours and finally get it, Thankyou so much!
I just got my results I passed my nclex!
Thanks Sarah you have been with me all through nursing school💝
This makes me soooo happy!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! this is kinda "Old News" to you BUT YOU PASSED!!!! YOU'RE A NURSE
Crying thanks sooooo much for explaining slow enough for a new older student to understand I just have to keep studying your examples with my examples before classes start in the Fall 2018. And YES I'm going to find ALL of your videos and study and take notes - Older Nursing Student here I come ;) thanks again!
I just learned more in the first 2 minutes than I did sitting in a 4 hour lecture.
Thank you SOOO MUCH!!! I’ve reviewed your videos before & now it’s time for me to renter school & you’ve clarified things that were unclear for me!! You’re a lifesaver!!! 👌🏾🙌🏾🥳🥰
You rock! I'm an RN for 8 years and always get tripped up on dosage calc exams for a new job. You helped me clear out the clutter and get to the meat of the question. Thanks sister nurse!
im in tears!!! this helps me so much!!! i was so worried about my HESI tests but now i feel super confident!!!
I got a 10/10 on my first math quiz thanks to you!!! Your content is amazing, and the extra quizzes on your website helped a bunch too!!!❤️
Hi sarah,
Thank God i found your website and currently taking pharmacology class. Its been a rough time for me not understanding how to do calculations and you just made it so easy for me. Simple way you did the dimensional analysis and i understand it now. Ive been searching how to do it in simplest way and now im confident in any problem solving i encounter. You are such a blessing to me. I always watch your video over and over.. Thank you for sharing this. Take care❤️
This was phenomenally helpful. Thank you for this video and all your videos. I truly believe you have a God given gift for teaching.
You hope it helped? It helped a great deal. Now I know how to solve drip factor calculations and how to weed out the miscellaneous wording. Now on to watch calculating heparin drip! Thank you, Sarah! You are awesome!
Wow, thank you for the very kind comment, Mye! I'm so very happy the video helped you! Thank you for watching it! Best wishes in your studies!
My pleasure! By chance do you have a video on how to calculate Heaprin drip?
No, currently I don't, but I will definitely add this to my list. It would be a great topic to cover. Once I get done with some videos in my GI series, I will definitely look into making this video. Thanks for the idea!
You are truly gifted! Thank you for helping future nurses. Even my professors recommend your videos! Keep on doing what you do, you are truly helping people who are struggling with nursing school... thanks!
I'm super grateful for your channel!!! I stayed up until 0200 the other night watching and studying your IV infusion rates, grains calculations, and memorized the whole conversion table on your website, got 4 hours of sleep, and took a difficult math test in the morning.
Thanks to you, I passed! Half of my class failed but I was one of the half that did passed! Thank you so much! RN program is no joke...please make more videos for us nursing students!
Wow, very awesome! You're very welcome, Rose! I'm so glad my videos could help you out! I hope you took a nap after that grueling studying, lack of sleep, and tough exam. I will most definitely keep making videos for you all! So, be sure to keep coming back to help you prep for lecture exams and NCLEX. Thanks you so much for your awesome comment :)
Haha yes I took a 3 hour nap when I got home lol that test killed a big chunk of my brain cells.
You have a gift. I remember the formulas in Algebra, but you made this easy to follow. I did a sample test before completing your video, and I knew how to convert the ML. Had to finish your video to know what to omit and convert liters. You're a great teacher 😊
6 YEARS LATER AND YOU ARE STILL CHANGING LIVES. THANK YOU!!!
You're literally the best teacher!!! I'm in the PN program and learning math all online (not fun) you make it so easy to understand and have given me so much confidence in doing well in this course!
You literally save me and my whole class when it comes to understand things in nursing school in Canada! Thank you so so much ❤️
You are amazing!!!!!!!! All of these videos on dosage calc are amazing and you made me master dimensional analysis without me even realizing it!!!!!! I’m going to put you in my will!!!!!!!!!!!!
Learned more watching you for 15 min than I have in 16 week semester. Taking my hesi test tonight thank you!
This is so great. I'm a new nursing student and I'm sooooo grateful I stumbled upon your videos! These are helping me so much! ❤
I am going into nursing school and they want us to know this prior to coming in as we will be tested the first week of class and I am already feeling so much more confident thankyou thankyou thankyou!
I had a few people try to explain dimensional analysis multiple times. I understood it in the first 2 problems with you. Thank you.for being a rock star. I think its the accent
Lol
You make everything so clear! Thank you SO much! I have a dosage calculation test tomorrow and you are helping me really grasp the concept & feel confident in applying it.
This really helped me understand!! I was having so much trouble with this practicing for my PTCB test that I'm taking in a few hours and now I feel a little more confident in this area. Thank you!
Thank you for being a part of my midwifery journey. I recently passed the licensure Examination. & Going to pursue for nursing course. 💕💖 Thank you.
Just got accepted into nursing school and I CZcams nurse math problems and your channel came. So far so good.
Thank you helping me learn drip factors as I'm currently about to start my nursing school soon and I wanted to be ahead of the game. Several seasoned nurses all introduced me to your videos and stated your videos helped them survive school. Now it's my turn. I'm going to continue watching all your videos to expand my knowledge for this field. Your truly the best! Thank you and have a great night 😊
I just passed my first Medication dosage calculation test today. I’m so excited and the next one will be on drip factors. You are so awesome thank you for helping us future nurses 💖❤️💖❤️
Ohmmqee. you’re a blessing. I am in my first week of Pharm and trying to refresh my math skills and conversions have never been my thing. You’re videos are so helpful and I’m learning a lot thank you much.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, TAKING MY MED MATH EXAM IN 5 MINUTES LOL
I struggled to understand but as the video progressed everything started making sense! I am 100% confident after this video! Thank you so much!
Sarah Ive been an LPN for about 5 years and I am studying for my RN boards. All throughout nursing school ive had a problem with these dosage calculations and barely passed! and i finally understand it so well.. thank you so much!
Thank you so much i felt so stupid...now i feel like i might get through the first semester😍😍😍
Thank you so you so much. Been a nurse for 10 years. Got a new job which requires a med test and I haven't seen these equations in a very long time. Thanks for the refresher!
You're very welcome. It is always good to have a refresher because in the real nursing world we don't use these equations very much haha. I wish you the best in your new job and on your med test. Best wishes!
Before I read the Comprehensive Books for NCLEX, I always make sure to watch all your videos. These videos are making our Lives easier. Thank you so much Sarah! You are totally awesome.
Thank you soo much! Your videos helped me pass my PTcB exam back in March! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Thanks, Sara! Great video! It finally clicked for me after watching you set up the problems. You are the best!
I was really struggling with dosage calculations in class. However, since I found your dosage calculation videos I finally understand them! Thank you for sharing!!
Yay! I'm glad these videos are helping you too! Thank you for the comment....you're so kind!
Dear Sarah,
Goodness you are a sharp cookie! Thank you for sharing your teaching skills with us seasoned nurses. This review is helpful in math review for a med test. Keep up the good work and go teach in colleges! You are a true professional.
This is the best thing even! Thank you!
THIS HELPED ME OUT GREATLY! I didn’t know I knew this after being out of school so long (13 years nurse) and the way she explained it had all of that old knowledge coming rushing back and refresher has me feeling very confident now!!
OMG!!! Pharm is killing me as a Student Midwife and the way you simplified this is Great!!! Thank you for taking time to assist those who may be struggling. Also, thank you for not speed talking. I loathe that when people talk so fast you can't even understand. Speaking with clarity and pace is important especially in a learning enviornment. Thank You. I look forward to watching more of your videos
Really love the simple way you break down the questions
thank you soooo much!!!! A couple mins ago I was struggling to figure out how to solve this with little review and absolutely no calculators allowed and a dosage exam in the morning you helped explain it and make it so much easier!! THANK YOU SOO MUCH! I truly appreciate what you do!
OMG!!! I just love your video's they help me so much!!!! The one video you had the picture of the Lord's supper in the back ground, that was awesome, and the fact that your from the south and so am I just makes it even better. But God bless you and thank you for all that you do for us soon to be nursing student!!!
Sarah, I just wanted to tell you how much I frickin love you!!! Your videos have saved my grades in nursing school! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!
Wow, thank you so much for the awesome comment, Becca :) I'm so happy my videos are helping you. Nursing school is crazy...so if I can help make it a little less crazy (if that is possible lol) I'm honored to do so. Thank you again for the comment..it made my day )

You have a heart of gold. Thank you so much for helping prepare me this last month for nursing school. You have made it easier to understand dimensional analysis and I have recommended you to so many others of fb nursing classes. Your videos are the best.
My pharmacology instructor sped through this lecture in 30 minutes. Thank you for explaining this. I understand it now.
Just finished my first week of Nursing school and have an exam I MUST make 100 on next Friday, thank yo so much for this video!!!
I wish you the best on Friday! Thank you for watching this video and for leaving a comment. I really appreciate it!
I only made a youtube account just so I can thank you! Thank you so VERY much ma'am. I've struggled so much with these calculations all throughout college. But you explained it so well!And I UNDERSTOOD every bit. I was smiling and getting a little bit emotional while I was answering your quiz, because finally I am able to do it. THANK YOU.
Oh wow, that is so AWESOME! I really appreciate this comment....it made my day to read it. I'm so happy I could help you understand drug calculations! Thank you for creating a CZcams account just to let me know the video helped you! I wish you the best in your studies :)
Its 2020 May and still say you are heaven sent, you made me understand this in the best way ever, ill never miss a math problem using dimensional analysis. God bless you Sarah!
Thank you I struggled horribly having to REPEAT Med Administration AGAIN but this helped IMMENSELY Thank you
Thank you Sarah, because of you I understand dosage calculations. I start nursing school next month.
I watched tens of videos before finding your channel and you were the only one who unraveled the "mystery" of Med Math for me (your website is awesome too)! I want to extend my sincere thanks to you for taking the time to make your series and also to say "You made Med-Math fun and easy to comprehend thus far." -Ms. M
+Mo Mishan Oh wow! Thank you so much, Ms. M :) Your comment really means a lot to me and I'm glad I could take this topic and make it fun...but most importantly I'm glad I could help you understand it better. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and I wish you the best in your studies :)
Thank you so much for the video! I'm taking pre-requisites right now but I like to watch videos like this during my spare time, just to give me an idea of what to prepare for in the future.
You make a great teacher! :)
You're very welcome, Norma :) That is very awesome you're watching videos in your spare time so you will be prepared....I have a feeling you will excel in nursing school ;-) Thank you for your kind words...I appreciate it. Also, thank you for subscribing :)
I was so struggled over an hour! I am taking NCLEX tomorrow ,was doing the question bank on Uworld and I cannot figure it out how to calculate but after I watched your video for only 6 minutes I can get my answer right!!! You are a genius! you have no idea how much that you helped us. Thank you so much!!
2 days till nclex and reviewing some of your videos on calculations. thank you!
Im from INDIA ,my name is Priya.. completed BHMS.. working as DMO since 2 yrs ..my calculations are very pooor.recdntly I found ur videos ...these are very very very helped me ..Thank u soooooo much ...for such a suberb easy explaination...please do more videos..
I had math and I was confused on this portion. But since I watch this video I understand much better now.
I have a 10 question math test at the beginning of each mod now 🤦🏾♀️
So knowing this is a must
Thank you for this video, because I did not like dimensional analysis but you made it so easy, Thank you . Now I need to see the other videos.
She is the best!!! You teach better than my professors
Thank you for producing this channel, I bet not only this but all of your uploaded videos had to help lots of future nurses. This lock down in general, access to lessons became quite more difficult unlike previous face to face classes, I am sure your videos are truly appreciated by mostly everyone due to the quality of content that you get to supply us audience, I hope you, your loved ones and all of us stay safe amidst the pandemic and may Godbless us.
Thank you for helping! I've used this in practice bc we ran out of blood during during covid. We had to use gravity gtt blood tubing only. They gave us a chart that I did not understand, this makes much more sense since I can directly calculate it using math and a drip factor.
Your teaching goes in smoothly into my head, you have the talent and knowledge. Thank you so much, keept the good work.
I just want to thank you so very much for all of the videos you have made through the years. Because of the stay at home mandate I am now taking my nursing courses online. Big Change!! Especially when we are doing clinicals using simulations to do so. Plus IV therapy online!! Your videos have helped me immensely!! I have a medication exam (online) this coming week and watching your videos on gtt/min and IV infusion I feel like I understand it. Our instructor has had some online chat classes to help us understand the math, but oh my gosh, it was like Greek to me!! Thank you for making it understandable... I watched your videos before the stay at home but now I am watching them even more!!! Btw.... I am 51 years old, Nursing school is difficult enough in class let alone behind a computer, lol....
Congratulations on the baby!! God bless you so very much!!
Thank you so much, for this valuable information,MaamSarah, long time ago, way back 1991, I graduated BSN,, unfortunately very weak in math problem solving meds,, I thank God, of your gifted talent,, that you're a great instrument to other nurses. Cheers!!!🍺🍻❤ Grateful
I really feel like were best friends at this point... thank u so much for all your help!!
HI Sara! your i have been watching your videos and its so helpful. You explain things so easily. Just wanna Thank you!!!
Taking a test today and your explanation has helped me so much!
+Noemi Hernandez Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment, Noemi! I hope your test went well today :)
-Sarah
This video is beyond helpful! I am taking a pharmacology class and the teacher gave us problems to view but no guide on how to work them. Thanks to you I got it down!
+Erin Travis Awesome! Thank you so much for your comment, Erin! I'm very happy to hear it helped you. I seen you subscribed and liked the video...thank you so much for that...means a lot :)
Just wanted to say thank you thank you thank you for these helpful videos! I am a term 1 nursing student and your videos are helping me so much. Keep up the good work!
You're very welcome :) Thank you SO MUCH for your kind comment! I wish you the best in your studies!

thank you so much did not understand this in class at all you but after watching your videos was so relived you make everything clear !love your videos God bless you.
I prefer the way you do the calculation. There is no easier method for drug calculation than dimentional analysis.Thanks for the helpful videos.
Thank you so much, Hari :) I agree too that dimensional analysis is the best for solving drug calculations. Thank you very much for watching the videos and for taking the time to leave a comment!
Very thankful to nurse Sarah. Continue aspiring our future nurses.
Wow you definitely made this easy to understand when I didn't understand this in class. I will be recommending this to my fellow class mates. Love the practice quizzes that you link in your videos. Thank you so much!
Hello Kayla :) Thank you so much for the comment and for your kinds words. I'm so happy the video helped and that you like the quizzes. Also, thank you for recommending my videos...I appreciate that so much :)
You are amazing and I thank Jesus above for you!! God bless my Nurse sister!!❤️❤️❤️I got this!!!! Because of your tutorials!
