Ordered dose = 10mcg/kg/min
=600mcg/kg/hour( 10mcg ×60minutes of 1hour)
Client weight =132pounds
Convert weight in kgs
1kg =2.205pounds
So weight = 60kgs approximately (132pounds/2.205)
Total dosage for client = 600mcg/hour×60kgs
=36000mcg/hour.
=36mg/hour (1000mcg = 1mg)
Available dose = 400 mg of dopamine in 250mlD5W
Per ml dose = 400mg/250mL
=1.6mg/ml
Client dose = 36mg
=36mg/hour ÷ 1.6Mg/mL
=22.5 ml/hour
