the nurse in the cardiac ICU is titrating a phenylephrine infusion. The order under the MAR is as follows: Starting dose 0.5mcg/kg/min. You may titrate 0.03mcg/kg/min every 15 minutes until a goal of a MAP of 65 mmHg has been achieved. Your client's blood pressure is 80/28 (MAP 45). You started the infusion at 0.5mcg/kg/min per your order. 15 minutes later you checked your client's blood pressure. It is 82/34 mmHg (MAP of 50). Your client weighs 220lbs. How many milligrams should they now receive every hour based on this most recent blood pressure. Report your answer to the nearest tenth of a decimal place. If the concentration of your phenylephrine is 100 mg/250ml NS, what rate will the pump be running at ml/hr. Report to nearest tenth of a decimal place
