DISCLAIMER

This calculator does not recommend which drug to use or how to treat any illness. It is not a replacement for training or experience, it only calculates a medication / treatment dose based upon the weight of the patient. The drugs included are those typically needed in pediatric resuscitation. It is intended for use by those in the health profession. Because of the changing nature of medication and dosage recommendations and varying patient requirements, the user must use sound clinical judgement to individualize therapy for each patient. This is only a calculator. The author disclaims any liability for loss, damage or injury resulting from its use.

Instructions: Enter the patient name (optional), age and weight. Select whether the weight is in kg or lbs and then click the Calculate button. A new page will be generated with weight based emergency drug dosages, fluid replacement and ET size guidelines.
