28
Q

Determining fluid needs for weight >20 kg?

A

1500 mL + (20 mL*[weight in kg-20]) (E.g. for each kg over 20, patient needs 20 mL of fluid in addition to 1500 mL)

also estimate using 30-40 ml/kg/day

29
Q

Equation for total energy expenditure

A

TEE = BEE * activity factor * stress factor

30
Q

Calculation for grams of nitrogen from protein

A

Nitrogen (g) = Protein intake (g)/6.25 (i.e. for each 6.25 g of protein, pt intakes 1 g of nitrogen)

31
Q

Corrected calcium when albumin <3.5?

A

Calcium corrected = Reported calcium + [(4.0-albumin)*0.8] (i.e. for each 1 point that albumin is below 4, corrected calcium is 0.8 higher than what is reported).

32
Q

Equation for anion gap?

A

Anion gap (AG) = Sodium - Chloride - HCO3

can also be expressed as AG = Na - (Cl + HCO3)

33
Q

Percent ionization equation?

A

pH = pKa + log (Salt/acid) or pH = pKa + log (base/salt)

34
Q

Calcium salt conversions (i.e. what is elemental calcium for calcium carbonate and calcium citrate)

A
  1. Calcium carbonate = 40% elemental calcium

2. Calcium citrate = 21% elemental calcium

35
Q

Absolute neutrophil equation

A

ANC = WBC * [(% segs + % bands)/100]

36
Q

Risk equation

A

(# of subjects with hazard)/(Total # of subjects)

37
Q

Relative Risk equation

A

(Risk in treatment group)/(Risk in control group)

38
Q

Relative Risk Reduction Equation

A

(% risk in control group - % risk in treatment group)/% risk in control group

39
Q

Absolute Risk reduction Equation

A

(%risk in control group - %risk in treatment group)

40
Q

Number needed to treat equation

A

(1/ARR expressed as decimal)

41
Q

IV:PO conversion Furosemide

A

IV:PO = 1:2

42
Q

IV:PO conversion ethacrynic acid, torsemide, bumeatide

A

IV:PO = 1:1

43
Q

List diuretic equivalent doses for loop diuretic doses, from most potent to least potent

A
  1. bumetanide 1 mg
  2. torsemide 20 mg
  3. furosemide 40 mg
  4. ethacrynic acid 50 mg
44
Q

How to calculate time to burn with sunscreen

A

SPF * Time to Burn without sunscreen

45
Q

What is Rule of 500 for rapid-acting insulin?

A

500/TDD of insulin = grams of carb covered by 1 unit of rapid-acting insulin

46
Q

What is Rule of 450 for regular insulin?

A

450/TDD of insulin = grams of carb covered by 1 unit of regular insulin

47
Q

How to calculate correction dose for insulin?

A

[(blood glucose now)-(target blood glucose)]/correction factor = correction dose

48
Q

How to caclulate correction factor for regular insulin?

A

Rule of 1500: 1500/TDD of regular insulin = correction factor for 1 unit of regular insulin

49
Q

How to calculate correction factor for rapid-acting insulin?

A

Rule of 1450: 1450/TDD of rapid-acting insulin = correction factor for 1 unit of rapid-acting insulin

50
Q

What is Friedewald equation?

A

LDL = TC - HDL - (TG/5)

*Do not use if TG > 400

51
Q

How to correct phenytoin level for hypoalbuminemia?

A

Phenytoin correction = (Total phenytoin measured)/[(0.2*albumin)+0.1] (i.e. corrected phenytoin equals measured phenytoin when albumin = 4.5…)

52
Q

How to calculate minimum weighable quantity for a scale?

A

MWQ = sensitivity requirement / 0.05

53
