250 mA and .2 sec creates a good radiograph of a lateral thoracic spine withappropriate exposure to the IR. The technologist wants to modify this technique to give the patient time to breathe during the exposure. If the time is changed to 2 seconds, what new mA will maintain exposure?
15. An IV infusion is administered to a 120 lb patient by IV infusion at a rate of 1.8 mg/kg/hr. The drug has a half-life of 8 hours and distributes into a volume of 15 L. a) Find the concentration function C(t) while the infusion is being administered. b) Find the loading dose required to make C(1) a constant if the infusion continues. c) If the loading dose from part b is given followed by 24 hours of infusion at 1.8 mg/kg/hr, graph the concentration for the first 48 hours. d) If the loading dose from part b is given followed by 24 hours of infusion at 1.8 mg/kg/hr, how long will the concentration remain within the therapeutic window of 50-100 mcg/ml?
