Figure 25-3: Neonatal drug calcs (drug keys A - F)
Select the DRUG A - F keys as you selected the DAY/TIME keys in other
calculations tables. When you begin drug dosage calculations, the patient’s
currently stored weight (automatically converted to kilograms) appears in the
table. Thereafter, selecting a drug key allows you to edit the data in the column
below it.
The DRUG A - F keys do not display actual drug names. However each column’s
default values are derived from common mixtures of frequently used drugs.
