Not true.

Animals have distinct ventral and dorsal portions, hence this is untrue. Animals' abdomens are referred to as ventral because they are on the bottom, while their backs are referred to as dorsal because they are on the top.

Humans are bipedal, thus everything farther back or close to our hind end is referred to as posterior, while anything higher in position or close to our head is referred to as anterior.

It is not always possible to use anterior/ventral and posterior/dorsal interchangeably. In contrast to ventral, which is more oriented toward the belly or abdomen, anterior denotes closer to the head or front end of the body.

While these terms can be used interchangeably when referring to human anatomy, it is incorrect to do so when discussing four-legged animals.

nitroprusside sodium (nipride) 50 mg is mixed in d5w 250 ml. the nurse plans to administer the solution at a rate of 5 mcg/kg/mi
Cerrena [4.2K]

124 gtt/min drops per minute should the nurse regulate the infusion . Because Sodium nitroprusside (nipride) 50 mg is mixed in d5w 250 ml.

182/2.2 Equals 82.73 kg when converting from lbs to kg. For this client, determine the dosage: 413.65 mcg/min = 5 mcg x 82.73. Calculate how much mcg Sodium nitroprusside  are present in 1 ml: 200 mcg per ml is 250/50,000 mcg.

The customer is to receive 2.07ml per minute (413.65 mcg/min x 200 mcg/ml), or 413.65 mcg/min x 200 mcg/ml. When the drip factor is 60 gtt/ml, the equation is 60 2.07 = 124.28 gtt/min OR, when utilising dimensional analysis, the equation is 60 gtt/ml X 250 ml/50 mg X 1 mg/1,000 mcg X 5 mcg/kg/min X 1 kg/2.2 pounds X 182 lbs.
