CONVERSIONS
BASED ON VOLUME
THE METRIC SYSTEM
1 mg = 1,000 mcg
1 g = 1,000 mg
1 oz = 30 mL
8 oz = 1 cup
1 tsp = 5 mL
1 dram = 5 mL
1 tbsp = 15 mL
1 tbsp = 3 tsp
1 L = 1,000 mL
1 mL = 15 gtts (drops)
Large unit to small unit
Small unit to large unit
TIP
move decimal to the right
move decimal to the left
Moving to a larger unit? Move the decimal place to the Left
(Ex: mcg → mg) (Larger unit think Left)
EXAMPLE
1500 mcg =
mg
A “mg” is larger (Larger unit think Left) than a “mcg”
Therefore you move decimal 3 places to the Left
1500. mcg = 1.500 mg (1.5 mg)
BASED ON WEIGHT
1 kg = 2.2 lbs
1 lb = 16 oz
lb
kg
DIVIDE
by 2.2
kg
lb
MULTIPLY
by 2.2
Example:
120 lbs = _____kg
Example:
45.6 kg = ______lb
120 lbs / 2.2 = 54.545 kg
45.6 kg x 2.2 = 100.32 lb

DOSAGE CALC RULES
KEY
Medication errors kill,
PREVENTION is crucial!
1
Show ALL your work.
2
Leading zeros must be placed before any decimal point.
The decimal point may be missed without the zero
EXAMPLE
.2 mg should be 0.2 mg
WHY? .2 could appear to be 2
(0.2 mg of morphine is VERY different than 2 mg of morphine!)
3
No trailing zeros.
0.7 mL NOT 0.70 mL
1 mg NOT 1.0 mg
WHY? 1.0 could appear to be 10!
4
DO NOT round until you have the final anwser!
HOW TO ROUND YOUR FINAL ANSWER
If the number
in the thousands place
is 5 or greater

The # in the hundredth place is rounded up
EXAMPLES: 1.995 mg is rounded to 2 mg

“Mom”
P Period Absent (Amenorrhea)
R Really tired
E Enlarged breasts
S Sore breasts
U Urination increased (urinary frequency)
M Movement perceived (quickening)
E Emesis & nausea
PROBABLE
OBJECTIVE
These are changes felt by the women that are subjective.
Can be associated with other things.
NOT a definite diagnosis for pregnancy!
Why is quickening not a positive sign?
Quickening can be difficult to distinguish from
peristalsis or gas so it can not be a positive sign.
Pregnancy signs that the
Think
“Doctor” nurse or doctor can observe
P Positive (+) pregnancy test (high levels of the hormone: hCG)
R Returning of the fetus when uterus is pushed w/ fingers (ballottement)
O Objective
Why is a positive pregnancy test not a positive sign?
B Braxton hicks contractions
A A softened cervix (Goodell's sign)
B Bluish color of the vulva, vagina, or cervix (Chadwick's sign)
L Lower uterine segment soft (Hegar's sign)
E Enlarged uterus
High levels of hCG can be associate with other
conditions such as certain medications or
hydatidiform mole (molar pregnancy).

PREGNANCY PHYSIOLOGY
HORMONES
Prolactin: Allows for breast milk production
Estrogen: Growth of fetal organs & maternal tissues
Progesterone & Relaxin: Relaxes smooth muscles
hCG: Produced by placenta, prevents menstruation
Oxytocin: Stimulates contractions at the start of labor
MUSCULOSKELETAL
• Lordosis: center of gravity shifts forward
leading to inward curve of spine
• Low back pain
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Calf cramps
RESPIRATORY
• ↑ Basal metabolic rate (BMR)
• ↑ O2 needs
• Respiratory alkalosis (MILD)
PITUITARY
• ↓ FSH/LH due to ↑ Progesterone
• ↑ Prolactin
• ↑ Oxytocin
CARDIOVASCULAR
• ↑ Cardiac output
(↑ Heart rate + ↑ stroke volume)
• Blood pressure stays the same
or a slight decrease
• ↑ in plasma volume
• Enlarges
(May develop systolic murmurs)
THYROID
• ↑ Thyroxine
• May have moderate enlargement
of the thyroid gland (goiter)
• ↑ Metabolism & ↑ appetite
q
RENAL
• ↑ GFR from ↑ plasma volume
• Smooth muscle relaxation
of the uterus = ↑ risk of UTI’s!
• ↑ Urgency, frequency & nocturia
• EDEMA!!
GASTROINTESTINAL
• Pyrosis
↑ Progesterone = LOS to relax = ↑ heartburn
• Constipation & hemorrhoids
↑ Progesterone = ↓ gut motility
• Pica
Non-food cravings such as ice, clay,
and laundry starch
SKIN
• Striae
Stretch marks (abdomen, breasts, hips, etc)
• Chloasma
Mask of pregnancy
Brownish hyperpigmentation of the skin
• Linea Nigra
“Pregnancy line” dark line that develops
across your belly during pregnancy
• Montgomery glands / Tubercles
Small rough / nodular / pimple-like appearance
of the areola (nipple)
HEMATOLOGICAL
FIBRINOGEN
Non-pregnant levels: 200-400 mg/dL
Pregnant levels: up to 600 mg/dL
Pregnant women are

TRUE VS. FALSE LABOR
CONTRACTIONS
FALSE LABOR
• Irregular
• Stops with walking / position change
• Felt in the back or the abdomen
above the umbilicus
• Often stops with comfort measures
TRUE LABOR
• Occur regularly
- Stronger
- Longer
- Closer together
• More intense with walking
• Felt in lower back -> radiating to the lower
portion of the abdomen
• Continue despite the use of comfort measures
CERVIX
• May be soft
• NO significant change in....
- Effacement
- Dilation
• No bloody show
• In posterior position
(baby's head facing mom's front of belly)
• Progressive change
- Softening
- Effacement
- Dilation signaled by the
appearance of bloody show
- Moves to an increasingly anterior position
(baby's head facing mom's back)
FETUS
• Presenting parts become engaged in the pelvis
• Presenting part is usually
not engaged in the pelvis
• Increased ease of breathing
(more room to breathe)
• Presenting part presses downward &
compresses the bladder = urinary frequency
SIGNS OF LABOR
LABOR
Moving the fetus, placenta,
& the membranes out of the
uterus through the birth canal
Signs of Preceding Labor
• Lightening
• Increased vaginal discharge (bloody show)
• Return of urinary frequency
• Cervical ripening
• Rupture of membranes "water breaking"
• Persistent backache
• Stronger Braxton Hicks contractions
• Days preceding labor
- Surge of energy
- Weight loss (1- 3.5 pounds) from a fluid shift

FETAL LIE
Relation of the long axis (spine) of the fetus to the long axis (spine) of the mother
LONGITUDINAL OR VERTICAL
• The long axis of the fetus is parallel with the long axis of the mother
• Longitudinal: cephalic or breech
TRANSVERSE, HORIZONTAL, OR OBLIQUE
• Long axis of the fetus is at a right angle to the long axis of the mother
• Transverse: vaginal birth CANNOT occur in this position
• Oblique: usually converts to a longitudinal or transverse lie during labor

ANDROID
• Resembling the male pelvis
SOFT TISSUE
LOWER UTERINE SEGMENT
• Stretchy
CERVIX
• Effaces (thins) & dilates (opens)
• After fetus descends into the vagina, the cervix is drawn
upward and over the first portion
ANTHROPOID
• Oval-shaped
• Wider anteroposterior diameter
PLATYPELLOID
• The flat pelvis

POWERS
Frequent changes in

• Relieving fatigue
• Increasing comfort
• Improving circulation
Contractions: Primary & Secondary
PRIMARY POWERS
SECONDARY POWERS
Involuntary uterine contractions
Signals the beginning of labor
Does not affect cervical dilation but helps with
expulsion of infant once the cervix is fully dilated
• Voluntary bearing-down efforts by the women
once the cervix has dilated
DILATION
• Dilation of the cervix is the enlargement or
widening of the cervical opening & canal
once labor has begun
• Cervix: closed
→ full dilation (10 cm)
• Pressure from amniotic fluid can also
apply force to dilate
• Shortening & thinning of the cervix during
the first stage of labor
2 -3 cm long
1 cm thick
• Laboring women start to feel an involuntary
urge to push & she uses secondary powers to
aid in the expulsion of the fetus
PSYCHOLOGY
EFFACEMENT
• Cervix normally:
• When the presenting part reaches the pelvic
floor, the contractions change in character
& become expulsive.

CARDIAC TERMS
CARDIAC OUTPUT (CO)
↓ CO = ↓ perfusion to the body
Total volume pumped per minute
• ↓ LOC
• Lungs sound wet due to backflow
• Shortness of breath
• Skin will be cold & clammy
• ↓ UOP
• Weak peripheral pulses
Normal 4 - 8 L/min
Less volume = ↓ CO
More volume = ↑ CO
CO = HR x Stroke Volume
Cardiac
Output
Heart
Rate
STROKE VOLUME
CONTRACTILITY
EJECTION FRACTION (EF)
Amount of blood pumped
out of the ventricle with
each beat or contraction
Force / strength
of contraction of
the heart muscle
% of blood expelled from the left
ventricle with every contraction
Normal EF: 50 - 70%
EXAMPLE:
If the EF is 55%, the heart is pumping out
55% of what’s inside of the left ventricle
PRELOAD
AFTERLOAD
Amount of blood retuned to
the right side of the heart at
the end of diastole
Pressure that the left ventricle has to pump against
(the resistance it must overcome to circulate blood)
Clinically measured by systolic blood pressure!
Hemodynamic Parameters
Cardiac output
(CO)
Cardiac Index
(CI)
Central Venous Pressure
(CVP)
Total volume pumped per minute
Cardiac output per body surface area
CI =
CO
surface area
Pressure in the superior vena cava.
Shows how much pressure from the
blood is returned to the right atrium
from the superior vena cava.
Mean Arterial Pressure
Average pressure in the systemic circulation
(your body) through the cardiac cycle
Systemic Vascular resistance
The resistance it takes to push
blood through the circulatory
system to create blood flow
(MAP)
(SVR)
Normal 4 - 8 L/min
2.5 – 4.0 L/min/m2
2 – 8 mmHg
70 – 100 mmHg
800 – 1200 dynes/sec/cm

6 STEPS TO INTERPRETING EKG’S
BASIC RHYTHMS
#1 P WAVE
NORMAL SINUS 60 - 100 bpm
SINUS TACHYCARDIAC > 100 bpm
SINUS BRADYCARDIAC < 60 bpm
Identify & examine the P waves
• Should be present & upright

BURNS
BURNS INJURY DEPTH
WHAT IS A BURN?
Damage to skin integrity
1st
Degree
TYPES OF BURNS
THERMAL
SUPERFICIAL
• Epidermis
• Pink & painful (still has nerves)
• No scarring
• Blanching: present
• Heals: few days
most
common
Superficial heat
Examples: liquid, steam, fire
CHEMICAL
2nd
Degree
Burn caused by a toxic substance
Can be Alkali or Acidic
Examples: bleach, gasoline, paint thinner
SUPERFICIAL PARTIAL THICKNESS
• Epidermis & dermis
• Blisters, shiny, & moist
• Painful
• Blanching: present
• Heals: 2 - 6 weeks
RADIATION
Sunburns (UV radiation)
& cancer treatment (radiation therapy)
INHALATION
3rd
Degree
Caused by inhaling smoke which can cause
flame injury or carbon monoxide poisoning
• Epidermis, dermis, & hypodermis
• May look black, yellow, red & wet
• No pain/ limited pain (nerve fibers are destroyed)
• Skin will not heal (need skin grafting)
• Eschar: dead tissue, leathery; must be removed!
FRICTION
Burn caused when an object rubs off the skin
Examples: road rash, scrapes, carpet burn
COLD
Skin has been overexposed to cold
Example: frostbite
FULL THICKNESS
LAYERS OF THE SKIN
ELECTRIC
Electrical current that passes
through the body causing damage within
POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS
Dysrhythmias, Fracture of bones.
Release of myoglobin & hemoglobin
into the blood which can clog the kidneys.
↓
EPIDERMIS
DERMIS
HYPODERMIS
subcut/fatty tissue
BURN LOCATION
RESPIRATORY
DISABILITY
TROUBLE HEALING
• Face
• Neck
• Chest
• Torso
• Hands
• Feet
• Joints
• Eyes
• Poor blood supply
• Diabetes
• Infection
INFECTION
COMPARTMENT SYNDROME
Any open area where
bacteria can easily enter
• In the extremities
Tight skin such as eschar acting
like a band around the skin
cutting off blood circulation
• Perineum
• Ears
• Eyes
INHALATION INJURY
Damage to the respiratory system!
Happens mostly in a closed area
SIGNS OF
INHALATION INJURY
Hair singed
around the face, neck or
torso
Trouble talking
Soot in the nose or mouth
Confusion or anxiety
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO)
POISONING
Carbon monoxide travels
faster than oxygen, making
it bind to hgb first.
Now oxygen cannot bind
to hgb = HYPOXIC
Classic symptom: cherry red skin
Treatment: 100% O2
NOTE:
Oxygen saturation
may appear normal
146
PHASES OF BURN MANAGEMENT
E
MERGENT PHASE
24 - 48 HOURS
after burn
Onset of Injury to the restoration of capillary permeability
PATHO
VITAL SIGNS
↑ Pulse
↓ Blood pressure
↓ Cardiac output
• Plasma leaves the intravascular space
• Albumin & sodium follows
• Fluids shift to the interstitial tissue
Leads to
Edema
Leads to fluids volume deficit (FVD)
in the intravascular space
NURSING CONSIDERATIONS
THINK:
Hypovolemic
SHOCK!
↓ Urine output
(from ↓ perfusion to the
kidneys)
LABS
↑ Capillary permeability (leaky vessels)
causing:
↑ Potassium (K+)
↑ Hematocrit (HCT)
↓ White Blood Cells (WBC’s)
↑ BUN/Creatine
ACUTE PHASE
48 - 72 HOURS
Capillary permeability stabilized - to wound closure
PATHO
Capillary permeability is restored which leads to
the body diuresing (increased urine production).
All the excess fluid that shifted from the interstitial tissue shifts back into the intravascular space.
GOALS
• Prevent infection
- Systemic antibiotic therapy
• Ensure proper nutrition
- Needs ↑ calories
- Protein & Vit C to promote healing
• Alleviate pain
• Wound care
- Always premedicate before wound care!
- Debridement or grafting
• Establish IV access (preferrably 2)
• Fluids (Lactated Ringer's, crystalloids)
• Parkland formula
• Foley catheter to monitor urinary
output (UOP)
- Goal: > 30 mL/hr of UOP
THINK:
• Decrease edema
ABC's
- Elevate extremities
above heart level
after burn & until wounds have healed
NURSING CONSIDERATIONS
• Renal
- Diuresis is happening
- Foley catheter to monitor UOP
• Respiratory
- Possible intubation if respiratory complications occurred
• Gastrointestinal
- Since the client is in FVD, there is
↓ perfusion to the stomach
• Paralytic ileus
• Curlings ulcer
- Medication to decrease chance of ulcers
• H2 histamine blocking agent (↓HCl)
- Monitor bowel sounds
- May need NG tube for suctioning
REHABILITATIVE PHASE
Burn healed and the patient is functioning mentally & physically
GOALS
• Psychosocial
• Activities of daily living (ADL’s)
• Physical therapy (PT)
• Occupational theory (OT)
• Cosmetic corrections
147
FLUID RESUSCITATION FOR BURNS
THE PARKLAND FORMULA
RULE OF NINES
Used to calculate the total volume of
fluids (mL) that a patient needs 24 hours
after experiencing a burn
Apply only in 2nd & 3rd degree burns.
4 mL X TBSA (%) X Body Weight (kg) = total mL of fluid needed
Give half of the solution for the
FIRST 8 HOURS
Give half of the solution for the
NEXT 16 HOURS
RULE OF NINES
Quick estimate of the % of the total body
surface area (TBSA) has been effected by a
partial & full-thickness burn in an adult client.
PART 1
PRACTICE QUESTION
A 25 year old male patient who weighs 79 kg has
sustained burns to the back of the right arm, posterior trunk, front of the left leg, and their anterior head
and neck. Using the Rule of Nines, calculate the total
body surface area percentage that is burned.
Back of right arm - 4.5%
Posterior trunk - 18%
Front of left leg - 9%
Anterior head & neck- 4.5%
Answer:
36%
NOTE:
The formula uses TBSA (%). However, you must calculate
PART 2
using 36. Not 0.36 (also written as 36%).
Use the Parkland formula to calculate
the total amount of Lactated Ringer's solution
that will be given over the next 24 hours.
Answer:
11,376 mL
4 mL X 36% X 79 kg = 11,376 mL
10,360 / 2 = 5,688 mL
FIRST 8 HOURS
10,360 / 2 = 5,688 mL
NEXT 16 HOURS
Keep in mind: the question could ask you for mL given in the first 24 hours, the
first 8 hours, etc., so read the question carefully.
