Question 1

Lipid emulsion administration to sequester the LA for LA Toxicity

Answer 1

intralipid 20% 1.5ml/kg/min bolus, max 8ml/kg

Question 2

Calculations: Concentrations
1:200,000 =

Answer 2

1: 200,000 = 5mcg/ml
1: 250,000 = 4mcg/ml
1: 100,000 = 10mcg/ml
1: 10,000 = 100mcg/ml
1: 1,000 = 1000mcg/ml

Divide 2nd number by 1,000,000

mcg to Mg - divide by 1000

5mcg = .005mg

Question 3

Monitors

Answer 3

SaO2, BP, HR, ETCO2
FiO2
* fire precautions**

Meds - benzodiazepine and opioid

Question 4

LA Concentration Calculations

Answer 4

gm to mg *1000

2% = 2g/100ml
2g * 1000 = 2000mg
2000mg/100ml = 20mg/ml

2.5% = 2.5g/100ml
2.5g * 1000 = 2500mg
2500mg/100ml = 25mg/ml

or shortcut
2% = 20mg/ml
1.5%= 15mg/ml
3% = 30mg/ml
2.5% = 25mg/ml
