At 1300 you begin an IV infusion at 67.5 ml/hr; the infusion is stopped at 1420 so the patient can leave the unit and go to a procedure. The patient returns at 1450 and you restart the infusion at 1510. The infusion runs for another 98 minutes. The concentration of medication in the bag is 0.85/50ml. How many mcg have already been infused? Round to a whole number.

Answer =

Fluid started 13:00 to 14:20 , Total minute 80 minutes.

Then later 98 minutes so fluid run for 80+98 = 178 minutes.

Concentration 0.85/50 ml = 1ml concentration = 0.017

IV infusion rate 67.5 ml/hour

so 1 minutes flow will be 67.5/60 = 1.125

1.125x178 minutes = 200.25 mcg

= 200.25x 0.017 = 3.4025 Answer
