The mcg/kg/minute the client is receiving is 1.904 mcg/kg/min whose weight is 70 kg.
<h3>What does mcg kg mean?</h3>
1 milligram (mg) = 1000 micrograms (mcg) or 0.001 grams (g) 1 g = 1000 mg 1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 g 1 kg = 2.2 pound (lb) 1 liter (L) = 1000 milliliters (mL)
The number of mcg/kg/minute = flow rate × concentration ÷ mass of client
Flow rate = 12 ml/hour = 12 ml/hour × 1 hr/60 min = 0.2 ml/min
Concentration = mass of dopamine/volume
where
mass of dopamine = 800 mg and
volume = 500 ml
Concentration =800 mg/500 ml
= 1.6 mg/ml
= 1.6 mg/ml × 1000 mcg/mg
= 1600 mcg/ml
mass of client = 70 kg
Calculating mcg/kg/minute
So, substituting the variables into the equation, we have
mcg/kg/minute = flow rate × concentration ÷ mass of client
mcg/kg/minute = 0.08 ml/min × 1600 mcg/ml ÷ 70 kg
mcg/kg/minute = 320 mcg/min ÷ 70 kg
mcg/kg/minute = 1.904 mcg/kg/min
Thus, the mcg/kg/minute the client is receiving is 1.904 mcg/kg/min
