ANSWER.
Calculation of amount(ml/hr)of pitocin required.
Ordered dose = 15 milliunit/minute.
Formula to calculate volume(ml) of pitocin needed
Volume(ml) = Desired dose/Dose in hand *Quantity.
Here
Desired dose = 15 milliunit/minute.
Dose in hand = 30 unit
Convert unit to milliunit for calculation.
1 unit =1000 milliunit.
So
Dose in hand = 30 * 1000
= 30000 milliunit.
Quantity = 500 ml.
As per formula
Volume (ml) = 15/30000 * 500
= 0.0005 * 500
= 0.25 ml /min.
Amount (ml/hr) of pitocin required = 0.25 * 60 (minutes)
= 15 ml/hr.
