Question 1 of 5
The nurse receives a prescription to administer dopamine at 5 mcg/kg/min. The nurse has a bag labeled with dopamine 200 mg in 250 mL of D5W on hand. The client weighs 81.81 kg (179.98 lbs). How many mL/hr will the nurse administer?
Correct Answer: 31 mL/hr
Rationale: Calculation: 81.81 kg x 5 mcg/kg/min = 409.05 mcg/min x 60 = 24,543 mcg/hr = 24.543 mg/hr. Dopamine: 200 mg/250 mL = 0.8 mg/mL. 24.543 / 0.8 = 30.68 mL/hr, rounded to 31 mL/hr.
