order nitroglycerin = 50mg in 250ml
Infuse rate given. = 10mcg/min
Infuse rate Hourly. = (10mcg/min) * 60
= 600mcg/60min
= 600mcg/hr
1 mg = 1000 mcg
There for, 600mcg = 0.6mg/ hr
Total order. = 50gm in 250ml
= 1gm in 5ml
= 0.1gm in 0.5ml
Infusion rate in mg/hr. (We found that in first part) = 0.6mg/hr
We know, 0.1gm in 0.5ml
There for,
Infusion rate at ml/hr = (0.1 in 0.5ml) * 0.6mg/hr
= 0.6mg in 0.3ml
INFUSION RATE = 0.3ml / hr
Answer : 0.3 ml / hr
