12. Give patient 24 mg of dopamine in 356 mL of D5W to be infused at a rate of 5,849 mcg/hr. Calculate the flow rate in mL/hr?
Ordered dose of dopamine is 24mg
Volume of D5W is 356ml
Rate of dopamine infusion = 5849mcg / hr
Convert mcg to mg
1 mcg is equal to 0.001 mg
Then 5849 mcg = 5.849 mg
Flow rate = Volume of the infusion( ml) / total time to infuse (hr)
= 356ml / 24 hr
= 14.83 ml / hr
