6.Hard
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An order reads 5 mcg/kg/min for a patient who weighs 96 kg. Express the dose rate D in mg/h. Round to two decimal places.
5 mcg/kg/min96 kg
D = mg/h
Answer key
- 1. m = 55.5 kg
- 2. x = 100 mL
- 3. m = 3.49 kg
- 4. m = 3.72 kg
- 5. t = 110 min
- 6. D = 28.8 mg/h
