💉 Inotropes & Vasopressors Infusion Calculator
This page provides an automated infusion calculation tool for commonly used inotropes and vasopressors in critical care, ICU, CCU, Cath Lab, and emergency settings. The calculator helps nurses and clinical staff quickly convert a prescribed dose into a pump rate (mL/hr) based on patient weight and the prepared dilution.
Supported medications include:
- Dopamine
- Dobutamine
- Adrenaline / Epinephrine
- Noradrenaline / Norepinephrine
- Phenylephrine
- Milrininone
- Vasopressin
The calculator allows you to:
- Enter dose in mcg/kg/min, mcg/min, or units/min (for vasopressin)
- Enter your own prepared dilution (mg or units in mL)
- Automatically calculate the infusion rate in mL/hr
- View reference dose ranges and receive a warning if the dose is outside the usual safe range
This tool is for clinical support only. Always follow your hospital protocol and the doctor’s order. Double-check all calculations, confirm the dose and units, and monitor the patient closely. If a prescribed dose is outside the usual safe range, reconfirm with the doctor before starting the infusion.
