Most commonly used to determine the infusion rate in mL/hour after inputting the desired mCg/kg/min dose and the infusion concentration. This can be used to solve for any one of the variables when the other variables have been input.

- mCg/kg/min: the micrograms per kilogram per MINUTE dose

- mL/Hour: the millilters per hour infusion rate of the intravenous solution

- Weight: the patient's weight

- Total milligrams: the total milligrams added to the intravenous solution bag or syringe

- Total Volume: the total milliliter volume of the intravenous solution bag or syringe

How many mL/hour of an 800mg in 250mL solution would need to infuse to deliver 20 mCg/kg/min in a 10kg patient? Input the following:

- mCg/kg/min: 20

- Weight: 10kg

- Total milligrams: 800

- Total Vol: 250mL

The calculator solves for mL/HOUR and gives an answer of 3.75 mL/hour.
