Answer 1

Answer #1

ANSWER.

* Calculation of amount(ml) of drug required.

Formula = Desired dose/Dose in hand * Quantity.

Ordered dose = 0.075mg/kg.

Weight of the patient = 40 kg.

So

Desired dose(D) = 0.075 * 40

= 3 mg.

Dose in hand (H) = 5 mg.

Quantity(Q) = 2 ml.

As per formula

Amount(ml) of drug required = D/H *Q

= 3/5 * 2

= 0.6 * 2

= 1.2 ml per 2 minutes.

Amount of drug administered per minute = 1.2/2

= 0.6 ml.
