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

Vitek1552 [10]

The available options are:

a) Push-up plus off a wall → shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press

b) Shoulder IR/ER → push-up plus → seated DB press

c) Shoulder IR/ER → seated DB press → push-up plus

d) High-rep bench press → shoulder IR/ER → abdominal crunch

Answer:

A. Push-up plus off a wall -> shoulder IR/ER -> seated DB press

Explanation:

A push-up plus off a wall is an example of a closed chain exercise as the arm is fixated to a stationary surface.

It also make your shoulder blades to move freely, making serratus anterior stronger, a vital muscle that keeps scapula stable and helps it rotate upward. This in turn reduces shoulder impingement when push-ups plus off a wall is done.

Shoulder IR/ER also helps to correct the imbalance in the rotator muscles of the shoulder.

Also, seated DB press strengthens all muscles of the shoulder in a functional way.
