The order reads to start a Nitroglycerin drip at 5 mcg/min on a patient.  Nitroglycerin is mixed 50mg in 250ml of D5W.  The patient weighs 75 kg. What rate will the IV pump be set in ml/hr?  Round the answer to the nearest 10th.  Do not put units of measurement in the answer.   Math Formulas for Exams When calculating a weight in kilograms round to the nearest hundredth and then use that number to calculate the dosage.  Round your final answer as indicated in the question.  ml/hr = mcg x kg x 60          or mcg x kg x 60 divided by mcg/ml                      mcg/ml mcg/kg/min = mcg/ml x ml/hr divided by kg divided by 60 mcg/min= mcg/ml x ml/hr divided by 60 ml/hr = mg drip ordered to infuse at x 60 divided by mg/ml ml/hr = mcg drip ordered to infuse at x 60 divided by mcg/ml
