ketorolac (Ketorolac Tromethamine) at 11.1 mg in 232 mL is to be infused at 16 mcg/kg/hr in a patient who weighs 46 kg. At what flow rate in mL/hr will you set the pump?
ketorolac ordered per hour / Have x Volume (mL) = Y (Flow Rate in mL/hr)
Weight in Kg * Dosage Per Kg= Y (Required Dosage)
46 kg * 16 mcg/kg/hr= 736 mcg/hr
Convert 736 mcg/hr to mg/hr.
mcg → mg → g → kg ( ÷ by 1,000 )
736 mcg/hr ÷ 1,000 = 0.736 mg/hr
0.736 mg/hr / 11.1 mg 232 mL = 15.4 mL/hr
15.4 mL/hr flow rate in mL/hr was setup in the pump
