Ml hr to mcg kg min
How do you convert mg to MCG?
Ordered amount of drug = 15 mcg/kg/min Dose/mL (Drug concentration) = 500/500 = 1 mg/mL Convert mg to mcg = 1 mg= 1000 mcg Patient weight 50 15 (Ordered amount of drug) x 50 (pt’s weight) x 60(min/hr) = 45 mL/hour 1000 mcg/mL (Drug concentration)
How do you calculate MCG/kg/min?
Our order is for 3 mcg/kg/min. Our patient weighs 70 kg. We need to multiply 70 by 3 to find out the total mcg/min. 70 x 3 = 210, so we will be giving 210 mcg/min. Our pump rate is always mL/hour, so we need to multiply our mcg/min by 60 to get mcg/h. 210 x 60 = 12,600, so we will be giving 12,600 mcg/h.
How do you calculate ml per hour from MicroG per hour?
= 222.5 microg/min Step 2 Since you are required to calculate a final rate in mL per hour, you need to change the unit of measurement from minutes to hours. This can be achieved by multiplying by 60 min/h: Rate (microg/h) = Rate (microg/min) x 60 (min/h)
How to calculate the concentration of 1000 mg in 500 ml?
First we need to get like units – 1 g in 500 mL = 1000 mg in 500 ml. Now to find the concentration: 1000 mg : 500 mL :: X mg : 1 mL 500 X = 1000 X = 2 mg/mL Then using our formula: 2 mg/min x 60 min/h 120

250 = mL/hr Calculating Critical Medication IV Drip Rates Most medication infusion rates for critical medications are weight based, using kilograms (kg) not pounds. The different rates are: mg/kg/min; mcg/kg/min; although some are mg/hour or mcg/hour. It is important that the healthcare provider order and calculate the drug accordingly.
