Expert Solution
Ordered amount of drug=4mcg
Weight of the patient=198lbs,ie 198/2.2=90kg
Available dose=250mg
Available volume=250ml
First find out drug concentration,
Drug Concentration= 250mg/250ml =1mg/ml
To convert mg to mcg =1mg×1000=1000mcg per ML
(Ordered amount of drud×pt's weight×60min/hr)/drug concentration
=(4mcg×90kg×60)/1000mcg=21.6ml/hr
