1st dilution : 1ml amino = 4ml NS TOTAL 5ml ( 25mg)
1ml = 5mg
SLOW IV * CHECK HR& RR during injection
11) INJ . PHENOBARBITONE 1ML (200mg) ampule

10ml = 1mg
1ml = 0.1mg
APPLY FORMULA
13) INJ. DEXAMETHAZONE 2ml ( 8mg) liquidform
1ml = 4mg
Dilution: 0.25ml (1mg) dexa + 0.75ml NS total = 1ml( 1mg)
APPLY FORMULA
14) INJ. ADRENALINE 1ML ampul
Dilution 1ml adrenaline = 9ml NS total 10ml
1 in 10000 unit
15) INJ. HEP saline prepretion
0.1 ml heparin 5000 unit = 100ml NS (INFUSION)
16) INJ DOPAMINE 5ml ( 200mg)
1ml = 40mg ( 30mg/kg)
Eg; 2kg baby need 60mg
APPLY FORMULA
1.5ml dopamine + 48.5ml NS
total 50ml (60mg)
5µ – 0.5ml/hr
10µ – 1ml/hr

17) INJ . CALCIUM GULCONATE 10ML AMPULE

Eg: 7ml calcium + 7ml NS total 14ml
INFUSION 1/2hrs
18) SODIUM BICARBNATE 10ML ampule HCO3 (2ml/kg)
5ml bicarb + 5ml strile water total 10ml
Infusion1/2 hrs
19) DEXTROSE PREPEATION
Concentration –A ( lesser) eg: what we have inhave 5%
Concentration – B ( greater) 20% or 50%
Concentration – C (desired) 10%
FORMULA:
C–A
= ----------- X volume need of be prepared
B–A
10 – 5 5
= ----------- X 50 = -------- X 50
25 – 5 20
12. 5 ML ( 25% dextrose)
37.5 ml 5% dextrose + 12.5ml 25% dextrose.
20) IV FLUID calculation for newborn formula:
60ml x weight ÷ 24 ( 60ml/kg/day)
Eg: 60 x 2.5 ÷ 24
= 6.25ml/hr
IVF start in 6.3ml/hr on flow.
21) FEED calculation
60ml x weight ÷ 12 ( 60ml/kg/day)
Eg: 60 x 2.5 ÷ 12
= 13ml Q2H
