Infusion Dose Calculator Calculate the drug dose rate (per minute and per kg per minute) for any infusion. You can also set an infusion drug dose rate and it will calculate the required infusion rate in mL/min instead. Independent inputs Variable Value Units Patient weight kg Drug amount mg Diluent volume mL Concentration: — mg/mL […]

Read More »This is the kit you should always take with you on retrieval / transport runs. It should be small, able to be carried in a large pocket or very small bag, and reasonably light weight. On most short (<2h total travel time) transports you will likely use none of it, but as transport times become […]
Read More »First try at a combined blood gas and Stewart method calculator. I’m not entirely happy with it, but refinements will come soon. Stewart Method Acid–Base Calculator Strong Ion Difference (SID), Effective Strong Ion Difference (SIDe), Strong Ion Gap (SIG), Partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO₂), Total concentration of weak acids (ATOT). pH PaCO₂ kPa mmHg […]
