Henrys law-gas/liquids
At constant temperature the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas at equilibrium above the gas-liquid interface
Grahams Law
The rate of effusion (gas diffusion through an orifice) of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight….
i.e. small molecules diffuse faster…
Diffusion vs osmosis
Diffusion is the movement of particles from high to low concentration
Osmosis is the movement of water (or the solvent) from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution in an attempt to reach equilibrium
Osmotic pressure
The pressure required to prevent osmosis
Ideal body weight calc men and women
Women: 100 + (5lbs/inch over 5ft)
Men: 105 + (6lbs/inch over 5 ft)
Fahrenheit from C
F= (5/9*C)+32
C to f : double it and add 30
F to C: subtract 30 an halve it
C from Fahrenheit
C=5/9(F-32)
Acceptable Blood Loss calculation
(ABL)
Based on EBV (estimated blood volume)
EBV*0.20=ABL
EBV for Men: 75mL/kg an Women: 65mL/kg
You have ephedrine 50 mg in 1 mL. You want to prepare a syringe with 10 mg/mL. What size syringe should you use? In the second step, you set up a proportion to answer the question, If the final concentration is to be 10 mg/mL, how much diluent do you add to 1 mL of ephedrine (50 mg/mL)?
5mL syringe,
1mL to 4mL lol
example 4: Epinephrine is available, marked “1/1,000” and “1 mg/mL.” You are asked to “double-dilute” it, so you take 1 mL of the epinephrine 1:1,000 and add 9 mL diluent. Then you discard all but one mL of the new mixture, and add 9 mL diluent. What is the resulting concentration of epinephrine in micrograms/mL?
• Epi 1:1,000 contains 1 mg/mL (= 1,000 mcg/mL). Taking 1 mL and adding 9 mL diluent yields a syringe with 1,000 mcg/10 mL (100 mcg/1 mL).
• Taking 1 mL of this mixture (containing 100 mcg/mL) and adding 9 mL diluent to it yields a syringe containing 100 mcg/10 mL. Each mL of the “double-diluted” new mixture contains 10 mcg/mL.
What is 0.0625% Bupivicaine in mg/ml?
0.625 mg/ml
% is g/100ml so it is 62.5mg/100ml or
0.625mg/ml
Give me mcg/ml from bag of 400mg in 250ml using the trick thingy
In each 0.25 mL (1/1,000th of the volume), there is 1/1,000th of the drug mass the entire bag holds.
• 400 mg x 0.001 = 0.4 mg = 400 mcg
• 250 mL x 0.001 = 0.25 mL
Epi 1:100,000
Give me micrograms/ml
Ratios are grams/ml
