The flow rate be 20.6 mL/hr in mentioned case.

<h3>Why dopamine is used ?</h3>

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter as well as hormone and plays a vital role in various body functions.

Important information to know:

Patient’s weight: 55 kg

Dose: 10 mcg/kg/min

Available: 800 mg/ 500 mL

What we’re solving for? mL/hr

[6:10 pm, 24/08/2022] Anushka Singh: 55 kg  x 10 mcg/min    x    1 mg     x       500 mL  = 275,000 = 0.34375 mL/min

800,000

Not done yet, we need to convert from minutes to hours because we need to find mL/hr:

60 minutes  x    0.34375 mL = 20.625 = 20.6 mL/hr

1 hour                  1 minute

Therefore, answer is 20.6 mL/hr
