A nurse is preparing to administer dobutamine 2.5 mcg/kg/min by continuous IV infusion to a client who weighs 65 kg. The amount available is dobutamine 250 mg/250 mL. The nurse should set the IV pump to deliver how many mL/hour? (Round to the nearest tenth.) - ~ANSWER 9.8 mL/hour
Rationale:
1. (0.0025 mg/kg/min) x (65 kg) = 0.1625 mg/min
2. (0.1625 mg/min) x (250 mL/250 mg) x (60 min/1 hour) = 9.75 ml/hour
3. 9.75 mL/hour = 9.8 mL/hour (rounded)

the nearest tenth.) - ~ANSWER 68.4 mL/hour
Rationale:
1. (0.004 mg/kg/min) x (57 kg) = 0.228 mg/min
