The patient weighs 49 kg and has an
order for 160 mcg of medication to be infused in 81 mL of IV solution.
The drop rate is 41 gtts/min with
tubing delivering 15 gtts/mL.
How many mcg/kg/min will the patient recieve?
= 160 mcg/49 kg
|
x Drop Factor (gtts/mL) = Y (Flow Rate in gtts/min) |
= 3.265mcg/kg/29.6341463 min
81 ml x 15 gtts/mL = 41 gtts/min x time
81 ml x 15 gtts/mL/41 gtts/min = time
= 1215/41
= 29.6341463 min
= 3.265mcg/kg/29.6341463 min
= 0.110 mcg/kg/ min
