Surgery for tubal ligation
A 65 kg patient is to have elective surgery for tubal ligation. We have decided to induce and maintain the anesthetic with propofol. We are to induce the patient with 2 mg/kg. We will then run an infusion of 120 mcg/kg/min of propofol. What is the induction dose of this drug, and at how many mL/hr do we run the infusion, given a propofol concentration of 10 mg/mL?
