Answer #1

24.

Order dose dopamine 2 to 20 mcg/kg/min

Available dopamine 400mg in 250 ml

Patient weights 150lbs (68.18kg)

The lowest dose will be 136.36mcg/min

68.18kg x 2mcg/kg = 136.36mcg/min

The Highest dose will be 1363.6mcg/min

68.18kg x 20mcg/kg = 1363.6mcg/min

Per hour it will be

the lowest dose 136.36mcg \times 60 min = 8181.6 mcg (8.18 mg)

the highest dose 1363.6 mcg \times 60 min = 81816 mcg (81.81 mg)

So, 250 ml contains 400 mg

For Lowest dose

250ml = 400mg x 8.18mg = 5.1ml (Approx 5 ml)

For Highest dose

250ml = 400mg x 81.81mg=51.1ml (Approx 51 ml)

Answer - D. 5 and 51 ml /hr
