The physician ordered Velosef (cephradine) IM 50mg/kg/day in equally divided doses four times a day for a child who weighs 40 pounds. Convert pounds to kilograms and then calculate the prescribed dosage

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:



Explanation:

40 pounds = 18.14 kilos

The dosage is 50mg/kg/day ---> 50 x 18.14 = 907 mg/day ----> divided by 4 (because it's four times a day) ---> the final prescription will be 226 mg IM every 6 hours.

obs: in these cases the doctor can either round the dosage up to 250 or down to 200.

Answer 2
40pounds =18.14 kilograms:)

why is knowing medical law important? IN YOUR OWN WORDS

Answers

Answer:

It is important because with these laws in place it helps people be able to follow the same guidelines and helps people not to be doing so many things at once like for example one person is doing something for a sition and another is doing something different for the exact same situation. It would otherwise be chaos without it.

i think it is important because if you break the laws you could lose your medical license or go to jail, or both.

Someone I know was climbing a tree, then fell, and broke both arms. Is it painful? Someone tell me about it.

Answers

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

When they first hit the ground, the impact makes them forget about the pain. Some people might not feel the pain due to them hitting their head at a certain spot which is dangerous. Breaking a bone is like cracking a part of your body, but instead of stopping the crack it continues till you feel a hard like object penetrating the inside of your skin.

Answer:

If you have had a fall or hit your arm you might feel or hear a snap or a cracking sound.

The main symptom is pain, which will be worse if you try to move your arm. A broken upper arm (fractured humerus) can be extremely painful, so much so that you may feel sick, dizzy or faint.

Other symptoms of a broken upper arm are:

You will be unable to use your arm.

Your elbow or upper arm may be swollen.

Your elbow or upper arm may bruise.

If it is a very severe break, your arm may be a different shape.

You may notice tingling or numbness.

There may be bleeding if the broken bone (or your fall) has damaged the skin.

C. Four fluids existed in the body: blood, yellow bile black bile and phlegm.
D. Two types of blood flowed through the veins and arteries.

Answers

Answer:

A) The same blood flowed through the veins and arteries.

Explanation:

William Harvey (1578-1657) was a British physician that lived from 1578 to 1657. He studied medicine at Padua, Italy, and became Royal Physician for kings James I and Charles I.

He was the first person to correctly describe how the human body's circulatory system works. He described how the heart, veins and arteries form one single complete circuit that extends through the whole human body.

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

The first person to correctly articulate with proof, how the blood circulates the body was William Harvey.

Besides proving that it's the same blood that flows through the veins and arteries, he also showed that Arteries transport oxygenated blood from the heart to the whole body, after the blood has exchanged oxygen for carbon dioxide, the Veins carries the blood without oxygen back to the heart from where it goes to the lungs for more oxygen.
