What does 1 dekajoule/second represent in watts?

One dekajoule per second equals 10 joules per second or 10 watts, measuring the rate of energy transfer.

In which fields is calorie (IT)/minute commonly used?

Calorie (IT)/minute is used in laboratory calorimetry, small-scale thermal engineering, and exercise physiology to measure heat and metabolic rates.

Why might this conversion cause confusion?

Because calorie (IT)/minute is not part of the SI system, its use in strictly SI-compliant contexts may lead to misunderstandings.
