ATI 133 Mental Health Final Exam Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

Administer Dopamine 3 mcg/kg/min. The client weighs 176 pounds. The drug is available as 500 mg in 250 mL of fluid. Calculate mcg/min, mcg/hr, and mL/hr. (Do not round your answer and include unit of measure with each answer)

Correct Answer: 7.2

Rationale:
To calculate the correct answer, first convert the client's weight from pounds to kilograms (176 lb / 2.2 = 80 kg).
Then, calculate the total dose per minute (3 mcg/kg/min * 80 kg = 240 mcg/min). Next, calculate the total dose per hour (240 mcg/min * 60 min = 14,400 mcg/hr). Finally, determine the mL/hr by dividing the total dose per hour by the concentration of the drug (14,400 mcg/hr / 500 mg in 250 mL = 28.8 mL/hr).
Therefore, the correct answer is 240 mcg/min, 14,400 mcg/hr, and 28.8 mL/hr. Other choices are incorrect as they do not follow the proper conversion and calculation steps.
