An IV solution of heparin is ordered for a client after it is determined the client has a pulmonary embolism. Supplied is 0.9% NS 250 mL containing 15,000 units of heparin is to infuse at 11.5 mL/hr. The nurse will set the pump to administer the heparin at [BLANK-1] units/hr (Round to the nearest whole number)

For burn calculation questions, please use the formula listed in the textbook.  2mL X kg X TBSA            A 234 lb. client is brought to the emergency room after falling in a campfire. The client sustained partial thickness burns to both anterior arms, anterior chest, and both anterior legs. The nurse estimates the TBSA at [BLANK-1]. Using the Parkland formula, the nurse calculates the pump to run at [BLANK-2] mL/hr for the first 8 hours. (Round to the nearest whole number)

The nurse receives an order for Dopamine infusion at 5 mcg/kg/min IV for decreased cardiac output. The dopamine is supplied as 1600 mg in 250 mL. The client weighs 287 lbs. The nurse will set the pump to run at [BLANK-1] mL/hr (Round to the nearest tenth)

The nurse receives an order to infuse heparin 635 units/hr to a client diagnosed with an acute myocardial infarction. The solution contains 100 mL D5W with heparin 25,000 units IV. The nurse will plan to administer [BLANK-1] mL/hr (Round to the nearest whole number)
