ANSWER.
* Calculation of mcg/min will the client receive.
Ordered dose = 4mcg/kg/min.
Weight of the patient = 83 kg.
Dose required for patient weight 83 kg = 4 * 83
= 332 mcg/min.
* Calculation of pump set(ml/hr) for drug administration.
ml/hr = Volume(ml) / Time.
Calculation of volume.
Volume(ml) = Desired dose(D)/Dose in hand(H) * Quantity(Q).
Here
Desired dose(D) = 332 mcg/min.
Dose in hand(H) = 100 mg.
Convert mg to mcg for calculation
1 mg = 1000 mcg
So
Dose in hand(H) = 100000 mcg.
Quantity(Q) = 250 ml.
As per above formula
Volume(ml) of drug required = D/H * Q
= 332/100000 * 250
= 0.003 * 250
= 0.8 ml.
Time = 1 min.
Convert ml/min to ml/hr by multiply with 60
ml/hr = 0.8 * 60
= 48 ml/hr.
