We LOVE hearing this from students, Puneet!! 😁😁 So happy to hear this video helped you better understand it! You are going to do FANTASTIC! Thanks for being here!
I just want to thank you for your videos. I spent HOURS watching nursing math videos online. The math never clicked until I landed on your channel. I honestly thought that I was going to fail out of my cohort because of the dosage calculations test that I needed to pass for clinicals. Well, I had my major dosage calculations test yesterday and thanks to you, I passed! You breaking things down and walking through every step, was so helpful for my learning. I have ADD and it's hard for me to listen to someone for very long. I love how excited you sound, change your voice tone/pitch, and show a lot of expression. It helps me focused on your content. Side note: I love how you call your listeners "friend", so cute! And I really love how you tell us that God made us to be nurses. I am sharing your channel with all of my nursing student friends!
Hey Tambra Staley! Thanks for your question. So when the order is in minutes you would add in that conversion, 1hr= 60 mintues, and when it is in hours you don't need that conversion. Since the end goal is ml/hr. I hope that clarifies it for you. Have a fantastic day friend!
@ZayaLondon since the initial order is mg/kg/minute we are able to cross out the minutes once we put in the 60 minutes per 1 hour and then are left with hour. I hope that clarifies it for you!
Cristiannn, we always recommend doing any dose calc problem with dimensional analysis. This video walks through how to get started: th-cam.com/video/LFvb5FpeHPQ/w-d-xo.html Keep going through practice problems, you will do GREAT, friend!
For the 2nd Question I did 50/ 200 x 1.2 / 1 and divided 60/200 got 0.3 and multiplied it by 84 and got a answer of 25.2. Does it matter how you calculate if you come up with the same answer?
Jay Morgan, as long as you make sure you are able to cross out all of your units to end up with what you need at the end then the order of how you organize the dimensional analysis doesn't specifically matter. I hope that helps clarify it for you!
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Enjoy every second of it! You will do GREAT! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊
Sorry to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Hank Omar i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Great question, Sherry Miller! You will round to the tenths place unless it specifically asks you to round to a different place. I hope that helps to clarify it for you. 😊
Charlie Wilso great question! You would convert to match your units, so if it was in minutes you would need to get to minutes, and vice versa! I hope that helps to clarify it :) Thank you for being here, friend! :
@@NursingSOS I still don't see the reason for the time conversion. I agree with all the other conversions, and I get .1909.... before the time conversion. It seems to me that if this problem was 5mcg/Kg/min and we are solving for mL/hr this would require a time conversion, but since it is 5mcg/Kg/hr and we are solving for mL/hr there is no time conversion. What am I missing? I very much appreciate these videos you are providing to us, and they are a great help. Thank you.
Charlie Wilson, thank you so much for catching that for us! It was totally our mistake and we appreciate you telling us! You are correct, with the 0.19ml/hr. We made a mistake with adding in that extra conversion. Great catch, you will be an outstanding nurse! Thank you for being here, friend :
@@NursingSOS Thank you for checking into this. We all make mistakes but I don't think you folks make very many and you are a tremendous help. I am not a nursing student. I am an 80 year old grandpa helping my grand daughter with her nursing school math and we use your videos.
I did 157÷2.2 to get 71.36kg then continued as normal with the 5mcg/1kg × 1mg/1000mcg × 250ml/500 × 60min/hr =5352000/50000 =10.7 Im unsure if converting first will always lead to the same answer but, I commented in case anyone else has the same concern.
Be careful with converting and rounding first, especially with pediatrics as the numbers get smaller, rounding too early can cause it to be a little off. Always round as the last step if possible! Thanks for clarifying, Breinna Sandi! Have a fantastic day 😊
Ana Ga, great question! When you are calculating flow rate or the rate of infusion you usually round to the hundredths unless specified. You want the number to be as accurate as possible, so rounding to the hundredths would be the most accurate unless otherwise specified. I hope that helps to clarify it for you! Have a fantastic day! :)
Angela Anin Agyei, we always follow the same 6 steps using dimensional analysis. If you have any specific questions, we are always available to help. The best place to reach out is through email at hello@nursingsos.com. Have a fantastic day! :)
Louise Rya, so sorry it was too small for you! We will look into how we can make it bigger for the future. Also, if you are able to make it fullscreen that might be helpful too! Thank you for being here, friend! Have a fantastic day :)
Rights for all humans, so sorry it was reviewed too fast for you. You can always rewind or pause it to catch up or review if you feel like you may have missed something. Thank you for your support. 😊
You would do better explaining alone. The nurse Nicole makes the video an unpleasant experience. She talks way too fast for anyone to actually learn the information. Common sense should tell her that.
I always love what you say at the end of the video about how god created the nurse you are meant to be. It makes my heart feel so warm. Lovely video!

pls where can i order the textbook
Also for questions with drips and how fast would it always be ml/hr?
Victoria Trotta, it will specify what the question is asking for so if they are calculating a rate it is typically in ml/hr unless otherwise specified
On the second question- the conversions of mins && hours not included?
Since the dosage is in mcg/kg/hr you don't need to convert to hours. I hope that helps to clarify it for you!
@@NursingSOS The first question did not convert minutes to hours. Please advise
So the min/hr doesn’t cancel out?
question 1. how do you get rid of the min. It doesn't cancel out in the problem. Please clarify. - Tambra
Hey Tambra Staley! Thanks for your question. So when the order is in minutes you would add in that conversion, 1hr= 60 mintues, and when it is in hours you don't need that conversion. Since the end goal is ml/hr. I hope that clarifies it for you. Have a fantastic day friend!
Hi, I thought for drips that the number always needed to be a whole number because we cant count a 2.3 drip.. so would we have to round up or down ?
Victoria Trotta, you would wait to do all rounding until the end
how do I know when to round up or down? will the problem tell me? or..
Victoria Trotta, you would use the same ronding rule, if it is greater than 0.5 round up, less than 0.5 round down.
Hello I have a quick question. For question 3 you didn’t cross out mins so I’m confused how you got your answer of mL/hr
@ZayaLondon since the initial order is mg/kg/minute we are able to cross out the minutes once we put in the 60 minutes per 1 hour and then are left with hour. I hope that clarifies it for you!
Thank you so much.@@NursingSOS
Is there a formula or how do you know where to place these numbers?
Cristiannn, we always recommend doing any dose calc problem with dimensional analysis. This video walks through how to get started: th-cam.com/video/LFvb5FpeHPQ/w-d-xo.html Keep going through practice problems, you will do GREAT, friend!
for question no. 2, it was asking for the rate of Dobutamine with the order of 5mcg/kg/min, why is the final answer at ml/hr?
For the 2nd Question I did 50/ 200 x 1.2 / 1 and divided 60/200 got 0.3 and multiplied it by 84 and got a answer of 25.2. Does it matter how you calculate if you come up with the same answer?

@@NursingSOS ok thank you.
You're the best hun. Thank you👐

@Hank Omar i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now.

@Hank Omar it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account :D
I thought that you could not leave decimal in milliliters
That they had to be rounded to the nearest 10th
Great question, Sherry Miller! You will round to the tenths place unless it specifically asks you to round to a different place. I hope that helps to clarify it for you. 😊
In Q1 since the order is 5mcg/kg/hr why was it necessary to convert hr to minutes?
Charlie Wilso great question! You would convert to match your units, so if it was in minutes you would need to get to minutes, and vice versa! I hope that helps to clarify it :) Thank you for being here, friend! :

I did 157÷2.2 to get 71.36kg then continued as normal with the
5mcg/1kg × 1mg/1000mcg × 250ml/500 × 60min/hr

On the first question would it be wrong to round it ? So 11.45 to 11.5?
Ana Ga, great question! When you are calculating flow rate or the rate of infusion you usually round to the hundredths unless specified. You want the number to be as accurate as possible, so rounding to the hundredths would be the most accurate unless otherwise specified. I hope that helps to clarify it for you! Have a fantastic day! :)
@@NursingSOS Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Ana Ga, you're welcome! Have a fantastic day! :)
I still don't understand this. Thank God for remediation. I can't do this.
I thought we will follow the same procedure with question 1 for the second question but I was wrong 😩
Angela Anin Agyei, we always follow the same 6 steps using dimensional analysis. If you have any specific questions, we are always available to help. The best place to reach out is through email at hello@nursingsos.com. Have a fantastic day! :)
U r teaching well, but I can read those words they r too small.
Louise Rya, so sorry it was too small for you! We will look into how we can make it bigger for the future. Also, if you are able to make it fullscreen that might be helpful too! Thank you for being here, friend! Have a fantastic day :)
question # 2 is too fast demonstrated for beginners :(
Rights for all humans, so sorry it was reviewed too fast for you. You can always rewind or pause it to catch up or review if you feel like you may have missed something. Thank you for your support. 😊
You would do better explaining alone. The nurse Nicole makes the video an unpleasant experience. She talks way too fast for anyone to actually learn the information. Common sense should tell her that.
You go to fast and you completely lost me on number 3.
You can slow it down at the top
