Question
Chapter 4.4, Problem 2TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
An organism that is known to cause disease is known as a pathogen and its tendency to cause disease is known as pathogenicity. A pathogen that invades and survives inside a host has some characteristics that are distinguishable from the non-pathogenic organisms. The pathogenicity can be enhanced due to the presence of locomotory organs.

Please help me calculate drug dosage from the following information:
Patient weight: 35 pounds, so 15.9 kilograms (got this by dividing 35 pounds by 2.2 kilograms)
Drug dose: 0.05mg/kg
Drug concentration: 2mg/mL
A 25-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with a 2-day history of fever, chills, severe headache, and confusion. She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes. Which of the following Plasmodium species is most likely responsible for her severe symptoms?
A.
Plasmodium vivax
B.
Plasmodium ovale
C.
Plasmodium malariae
D.
Plasmodium falciparum
