Goblin the pitty is 35.2 lb and needs IV fluids. You are tasked with calculating her TFN over 24 hours. You note that she is 2% dehydrated and has vomited 15 mL today.  Maintenance Requirement (MR) = [mr](rate is: 90 mL/kg/day)Hydration Deficit (HD) =  [hd](decimal  x  kg  x  1000 mL/24 hr)Contemporary Losses (CL) =  [cl] Total Fluid Needs (TFN) =  [tfn] What will her fluid hourly rate be? [HourlyRate]

Betty weighs 7.8 kg and needs to be started on a 1/2 L bag at a fluid rate of 90 ml/kg/24 hr.  You will be infusing the bag with 40 mg/kg/day of a drug that comes in 30 mg/mL. What is hour CRI rate? [cri] How many hours will her fluid bag last? [hr] What volume of this medication will you add to her bag of fluids? [v] Oh no! The power went out!  You have to calculate her drip rates.  Using a 15 gtt/mL set, calculate: 1. drop minute rate [min] 2. drop second rate [sec]

You ran a chemistry and your vial of serum was too concentrated to read.  The lab machine can’t read the liver values.  A message pops up on the machine and states that you need to being an independent dilution series, with the first dilution being a 4 fold. What is the dilution factor of this first vial ? [dilution1] For vial 2, you use a 3 fold dilution.  What is the dilution factor in this second vial? [vial2] If you continue on using a 3 fold dilution, which vial will have: 1/108?  [vial]
