I need help with a dimensional analysis math problem:
Your patient had an IC bleed due to uncontrolled hypertension and is now on a Cardene gtt. The pharmacy dilutes 25mg of Cardene in 240mL of D5W (Yielding 250mL of 0.1mg/mL solution). You are to start the infusion at 5mg/hr and titrate for SBP of 150-180. What is your initial mL/hr (using standard 60gtt tubing) you will set your pump to infuse?
I got 50mL/hr is this correct?
