==Dextrose Comparison==
*[[D50W]]
**25gm dextrose in 50mL sterile water (25g/50ml = 50% dextrose)
*[[D10W]]
**25gm dextrose in 250mL sterile water (25gm/250mL = 10% dextrose)
*[[D5W]]
**25gm dextrose in 500mL sterile water (25gm/500mL = 5% dextrose)

==Rule of 50==
Divide 50 by the type of dextrose solution to arrive at rate in ml/kg
*Adult (D50): 50/50 = 1 ml/kg
*Pediatric (D25): 50/25 = 2 ml/kg
*Infant (D10): 50/10 = 5 ml/kg
