An order is given to administer 73 mg heprin over a course of 5 hours by IV. If 300.0 mL of bag contains 125.0 mg of heprin, what flow rate ( in mL per minute) should be administered to the patient?
Homework Answers
The bag has 125mg/300mL.
First we need to know how many mL we need to administer the patient so he gets 73mg.
Let's do a simple rule and solve for V:
125mg / 300mL = 73 mg / V mL
V = 175.2 mL
That's the total volume the patient will get, now we only need to calculate the flow rate, simply divide that volume by 300 min (5 h = 300min).
FR = 175.2mL/300min
FR = 0.584 mL/min
