Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Convert 0.5 mg to mcg: find x.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A dose calculation for an injection gives 13.5013 mL. The rule in this exercise is that volumes of 1 mL or more are rounded to the nearest tenth of a mL. What value x do you record?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A dose calculation for an injection gives 12.1115 mL. The rule in this exercise is that volumes of 1 mL or more are rounded to the nearest tenth of a mL. What value x do you record?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An infusion delivers 6 mcg/min. Express this dose rate D in mg/h.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An infusion delivers 5 mcg/min. Express this dose rate D in mg/h.
Answer key
- 1. n = 4 fl oz
- 2. x = 500 mcg
- 3. x = 13.5 mL
- 4. x = 12.1 mL
- 5. D = 0.36 mg/h
- 6. D = 0.3 mg/h
