A nurse is preparing to administer dopamine 2 mcg/kg/min by continuous IV infusion for a client who weighs 110 lb. Available is dopamine 400 mg in 250 mL of D5W. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many ml/hr administer? (Round the answer to the nearest
tenth.)

3.7ml/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

A nurse is preparing to administer dopamine 2 mcg/kg/min by continuous IV infusion

Step 1

The patient weighs 110lb(pounds

Convert the patients weight to kilogram

1 lb = 0.454kg

110lb =

Cross Multiply

110lb × 0.454kg

= 49.94kg

The patient weight = 49.94kg

Step 2

The dosage to to be administered by the nurse = 2 mcg/kg/min

If 1 kg = to be administered 2mcg/min

49.94 kg =

(49.94kg × 2mcg/min)/1

= 99.88mcg/min

Therefore, for the patient's body weight, the patient's dosage = 99.88mcg/min

Step 3

Available dopamine is 400mg in 250ml

We have to convert this to mcg

Hence,

1 mg = 1000mcg

400mg =

Cross Multiply

= 400mg × 1000mcg

= 400000mcg

Hence, the available dopamine is administer in 250ml/400000mcg

Part 3

Since 60 minutes is 1 hour

The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many ml/hr

(99.88mcg/min × 250ml × 60mins)/ 400000mcg

= 3.7455ml/hr

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 3.7ml/hr

b. astronomers

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
