Q

What is the formulas for Calcium Correction?

Study These Flashcards
A

Ca correction = Serum Ca + [(0.4 - Albumin) * 0.8]

22
Q

What are that fat soluble vitamins?

23
Q

What drugs have narrow therapeutic index and therefore, during calculations, we must use IBW even if patient is obese?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Theophylline
  • Aminophylline
  • Acyclovir
  • Levothyroxine
24
Q

What level indicates patient is dehydrated?

Study These Flashcards
A

BUN:SCr ratio > 20:1 = patient is dehydrated

25
When do we use Adjusted Body Weight in CrCl calculations?
TBW > IBW and BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2
26
When do we use Ideal Body Weight in CrCl calculations?
TBW > IBW and BMI < 25 kg/m2
27
When do we use Actual Body Weight in CrCl calculations?
TBW < IBW
28
How is Arterial Blood Gas ordered in lab results?
ABG = pH/pCO2/pO2/HCo3/O2 sat ``` pH = 7.35 - 7.45 pCO2 = 35 - 45 pO2 = 80 - 100 HCo3 = 22 - 26 O2 sat = < 95 ```
29
Acidosis defintion?
pH < 7.35
30
Alkalosis defintion?
pH > 7.45
31
Metabolic Acidosis definition?
Decrease in plasma HCO3 Normal HCO3 = 22 - 26 mEq/L
32
Metabolic Alkalosis definition?
Increase in plasma HCO3 Normal HCO3 = 22 - 26 mEq/L
33
Respiratory Acidosis definition?
Increased pCO2 Normal pCO2 = 35 - 45 mmHg
34
Respiratory Alkalosis definition?
Decreased pCO2 Normal pCO2 = 35 - 45 mmHg
35
What are the causes of Anion Gap Acidosis
CUTE DIMPLES ``` Cyanide Uremia Toluene Ethanol ****Diabetic Ketoacidosis Isoniazid Methanol Propylene glycol ****Lactic acidosis Ethylene glycol Salicylates ```
36
Formula for Anion gap (AG)
AG = Na - Cl - HCO3
37
pH & pKa formula
pH = pKa + log [salt/acid] pH = pKa + log [base/salt] pH = (pKw - pKb) + log [base/salt]
38
What relationship b/w pH and pKa means that more of the acid is ionized?
pH > pKa
39
What relationship b/w pH and pKa means that more of the acid is UN-ionized?
pH < pKa
40
What relationship b/w pH and pKa means that ionized and un-ionized forms are equal?
pH = pKa
41
ANC (cell/mm3) formula
ANC = WBC [ (% segs + % bands) / 100 ]
42
Corrected phenytoin formula
Corrected phenytoin= Observed phenytoin / [(0.2 x albumin) + 0.1]
43
Aminophylline to Theophylline conversion
ATM | M for multiply by 0.8
44
Elemental of Calcium Carbonate
40% 1g of calcium carbonate = 400 mg elemental
45
Elemental of Calcium Citrate
21% 1g of calcium citrate = 210 mg element
46
Statin equivalent doses (convertings)
Pharmacists Rock At Saving Lives and Preventing Fat ``` Pitavastatin = 2mg Rosuvastatin = 5mg Atorvastatin = 10mg Simvastatin = 20mg Lovastatin = 40mg Pravastatin = 40mg Fluvastatin = 80mg ```
47
Loop diuretic equivalent dosing
Bumetanide 1 mg = Furosemide 40 mg = Torsemide 20 mg = Ethacrynic acid 50 mg
48
Metoprolol IV : PO
IV : PO 1 : 2.5
49
Furosemide IV : PO
IV : PO 1 : 2
50
Systemic steroid dose equivalence
Better Defend Mom To People Having Concerns ``` B - Betamethasone = 0.6 mg D - Dexamethasone = 0.75 mg M - Mehtylprednisolone = 4 mg T - Triamcinolone = 4 mg P - Prednisone = 5 mg P - Prednisolone = 5 mg H - Hydrocortisone = 20 mg C - Cortisone = 25 mg ```
51
Morphin IV/IM/PO, Hydromorphone IV/IM/PO conversion
IV/IM PO Morphine 10 30 Hydromorphone 1.5 7.5
