What equation is the backbone to dilutions?

A

C1 V1 = C2 V2

29
Q

What is a nomogram?

A

A diagram that can be used to estimate one of body mass, height or body surface area when the other two variables are known.

30
Q

How is a nomogram used?

A

Plot the two known variables onto the graph, connect with a line.
Extrapolate over the unknown variable to estimate its value.

31
Q

What units can be used in a nomogram?

A

Body surface area is in meters squared.
Hieght is in cm or inches.
Weight is in Kg or pounds.

32
Q

How can body surface area be calculated without a nomogram?

A

BSA = W^0.425 x H^0.725 x 0.007184

33
Q

What are the different units from kilo downwards

A

Kilo, x, deci, centi, milli, micro, nano, pico, fecto
