Formulas Flashcards
Pediatric ETT Diameter
(16 + Age)/4= ETT Diameter
Pediatric Suction/NG/Foley
(16 + Age)/4= ETT Diameter
2xETT =Suction/NG/Foley
Pediatric ETT Depth (cm)
(16 + Age)/4= ETT Diameter
3xETT =ETT insertion depth (cm)
Pediatric Chest Tube
16 + Age)/4= ETT Diameter
4xETT =Chest Tube
Pediatric BP normal
90 + (2 x Age)= BP normal
Pediatric BP Hypotensive
70 +(2 x Age)= Hypotensive BP
Mean atrial Pressure
MAP = [(2 x diastolic)+systolic] / 3
HCO3 Replacement
0.1x (-BE)x kg = HCO3 replacement
Winter formula- What does it tell you?
Expected PCO2 =(1.5 xHCO3)+8 +/-2
Time until cylinder is empty
(PSI – 200) x conversion factor/ (flow rate L/minute)= Time until empty
Conversion factor
D 0.16 E 0.28
H or K 3.14 M 1.56
Ideal Body Weight Calculation
Male = 50.0+2.3x(ht)
Woman = 45.5 + 2.3x(ht)
Shock index
HR/SBP= Shock index
<0.7 = Normal
> 0.8= Elevate- need for transfusion/Risk for post-intubation hypotension
>1.0 = predictor of mortality
Anion Gap Formula
What is normal
Anion gap = Na⁺ + K⁺ – (Cl⁻ + HCO₃⁻)
Normal 10+/-2
CCP
CCP= MAP -ICP
ICP 0-10 normal 10-25 is increased ICP
Normal CCP= 60 and 80 mm Hg
Pediatric Maintenance fluid
4 mL / kg / hour for the first 10kg of body mass
2 mL / kg / hour for the second 10kg of body mass (11kg - 20kg)
1 mL / kg / hour for any kilogram of body mass above 20kg (> 20kg)
