Study Notes

Common measurement conversions are necessary for everyday tasks, including converting milligrams to grams, milliliters to liters, and vice versa.
To convert milligrams to grams, divide the number of milligrams by 1000. For example, 1 mg = 0.001 g.
Converting milliliters to liters involves dividing the number of milliliters by 1000. For instance, 1 mL = 0.001 L.
For liters to milliliters conversion, multiply the number of liters by 1000. For example, 0.5 L = 500 mL.
Amidate is an IV anesthetic used for induction with a typical initial adult dose range of 0.2–0.3 mg/kg, reaching up to 0.6 mg/kg in specific cases.
Rocuronium is a muscle relaxant with a typical adult dosage range of 0.6–1.2 mg/kg and a loading dose of 1.2 mg/kg for rapid sequence intubation.
Ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic, has varying dosages depending on use, with a bolus dose of 0.5–1 mg/kg IV during induction.
Succinylcholine, another muscle relaxant, has an initial dose of 1.5 mg/kg IV, potentially increasing to 2 mg/kg in certain situations.
