Start IV with 400mg dopamine in 250mL D5W start at 5mcg/kg/min client weight 85kg. Titrate at 5mcg/kg/min every 10-30min until pulse (P) is greater than or equal to 60bpm. The maximum dosage is 50mcg/kg/min. Calculate the initial dosage in mL/hr. (Round to the whole number and only use numbers.) [BLANK-1] Dopamine_800_new.jpg
