To determine the many mls will you give to “Lucy”:
Using a weight measurement by volume conversion
[tex]\text{Volume(ml)}=\frac{\text{mass(kg) x dose(mg/ml)}}{density\text{ (mg/ml)}}[/tex]Mass = 16kg
dose = 22mg/kg
density = 100mg/ml
How many mgs of cefazolin will you give to “Lucy
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{mass (mg) = 22 mg / kg x 16kg} \\ \text{mass (mg) = 352 mgs} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the mass (mgs) of cefazolin given to lucy = 352 mgs
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Volume (ml) = }\frac{\text{22 x 16 mg }}{100\text{ mg/ml}} \\ \text{Volume (ml) = }\frac{88}{25}ml \\ \text{Volume = 3.52 ml} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the volume (mls) given to lucy = 3.52 ml
