This webinar works through the common formulae used in veterinary nursing and when to use each one. It starts with working out heart and respiration rates quickly without a calculator, then covers dose rate calculations for injections and tablets, and calculating resting and daily energy requirements to work out how much food to feed.
It then covers calculating the theobromine dose in chocolate toxicity cases, urine output in catheterised patients, rebreathing bag sizes and oxygen flow rates for anaesthetic circuits. It finishes with total fluid requirements: maintenance, fluid deficit, ongoing losses and the hourly rate.
Presented by Michele El Bayeh as part of the ACVN webinar series.
