You are administering heparin and following the protocol below for a client weighing 189 lbs. The order is to administer an initial heparin bolus IV followed by a titrated IV infusion. Round to the tenths place. HEPARIN PROTOCOL Initial bolus- 50 units/kg Initial rate – 18 units/kg/h Obtain a PTT every 6 hours, and adjust dosage and rate as follows: If  PTT is less than 35 secs:      Repeat bolus with 80 units/kg and increase the rate by 4 units/kg/h If  PTT is 36 to 44 seconds:       Repeat bolus with 40 units/kg and increase the rate by 2 units/kg/h If  PTT is 45 to 75 seconds:       Continue current rate. If  PTT is 76 to 90 seconds:       If  PTT is 76 to 90 seconds: Decrease rate by 2 units/kg/h If  PTT is greater than 90 secs: Hold the heparin for 1 hour and decrease rate by 3 units/kg/h Available (for bolus)  – heparin 1,000 units/mLAvailable (for infusion) –  heparin 25,000 units in 250 mL D5W  6 hours later the PTT results from the lab are- PTT 100 secs for this patient.
