Definition: This field contains the units for RXE-23-give rate amount. May be composite. The ratio of the RXE-23-give rate amount and RXE-24-give rate units defines the actual rate of administration. Thus, if RXE-23-give rate amount = 100 and RXE-24-give rate units = ml/hr, the requested rate of administration is 100 ml/hr. (See ISO+ Figure 7-13 in Chapter 7 for possible compound units codes.)
