Subject: hyphen in round-per-minute
She required a micro round-per-minute of Dopamine to maintain her pressure. Do I have the hyphens correct in round-per-minute? There wouldn't be a hyphen between micro and round would there? Hyphens really get me :(
Thanks.

I've been dealing with ESL dictators and I can't decide if they're saying in the PE that "pulse is 79, permanent" or pulse 79 per minute" Any idea on which is more common? Thanks.

Subject: 5. 15 liters of oxygen per minute?
I have replayed this multiple times and could swear the RN is saying the patient received 5.15 liters per minute of oxygen but that does not seem reasonable to me. The patient is in ICU for pulmonary hemorrhage and was desatting below 80. Feedback anyone?
