Diana jones is 5'4" and weighs 145 pounds. would the anesthetic choices be the same for diana as they would be for a 6'3" 210 lbs man or a 4'6", 65 lb 10 year old girl? why or why not?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Propofol (another name Diprivan) can be used for Diana's surgery. It is a sedative or anesthesia commonly used for children and adults. Studies show that there were no significant differences in dose requirements based on sex or age, except for the too elderly.  The difference in dosing considering different body weights were not statistically significant also.  The same dose is safe

( 0.1-0.15 mg/kg/min IV for 3-5 min) for Diana, the 210 lb man or a 10-year-old girl. However, the dose was higher in patients with bradycardia and hypotension. 

The anesthetic choices for the other man will not be the same for Diana as anaesthetic dosage is given based on body mass index.
