Critical Care IV Calculations 1. Calculate the flow rate for a critical care drug that is to be delivered at 0.2 mg/min from a solution of 500ml containing 100mg. 2. A solution of 250ml D5W contains 10 mg of a critical care medication. It is ordered to infuse at 4 mcg/min. What is the flow rate? 3. The medication is to be infused at the rate of 1 mcg/kg/min. The patient weighs 49 kg. The strength of the solution is 40mg in 500ml. Calculate the flow rate. 4. A solution of 3 mg of medication in 500ml D5W is to be infused at the rate of 0.02 mcg/kg/min. The patient weighs 67 kg. Calculate the flow rate. 5. The dosage ordered is 5 mcg/kg/min. The patient weighs 85 kg and the solution strength is 600mg in 250 ml. Calculate the flow rate. 6. A medication is being titrated to maintain a systolic BP> 100. The solution strength is 6 mg in 1000ml D5W. The range order is 2-4 mcg/min. Calculate the flow rate range. 7. A medication dosage of 400-800 mcg/min has been ordered to regulate BP. The solution strength is 200mg in 50ml D5W. Calculate the flow rate range. 8. The medication is to be infused is Vasopressin 0.2 units/min. The patient weighs 49 kg. The strength of the solution is 200 units in 500ml. Calculate the flow rate. To be set on the IV pump. 9. The dosage ordered is NTG 12 mcg/min. The patient weighs 85 kg and the solution strength is 50mg in 250 ml. Calculate the flow rate to be set on the IV pump. 10. The dosage ordered is Dopamine 15 mcg/kg/min. The patient weighs 80 kg and the solution strength is 500mg in 250 ml. Calculate the flow rate to be set o the IV pump.
