Front
11. An 18 kg infant has gone into cardiac arrest, your thought is to give
epinephrine at 10 mcg/kg. How many mls of epinephrine do you give?
(remember that standard epi comes as 1:1000 epinephrine)
Back
10 mcg/kg x 18 kg = 180 mcg
1:1,000 Epi = 1 mg/ml Epi = 1,000 mcg/ml Epi
180 mcg Epi x ( 1 ml / 1,000 mcg ) = 0.18 ml of 1:1,000 Epi
