Broselow Pediatric Emergency Tape 2017

New Edition! Based on the principle that a child's length is related to a lean body weight, this tape quickly indexes infant and child weight, drug dosage, and equipment sizing. This 2017 version of the Broselow Reference Tape will be compliant with the 2015 PALS Standards and will include the following: - Pre-calculated doses in milligrams, as well as all doses in pre- calculated ml, making the entire process error free by removing the need for any calculations. - The new tape will accommodate for obesity by allowing for a habitus adjustment if deemed appropriate to the tape weight estimation. - When used without the habitus adjustment new tape provides an accurate estimate of Ideal Body Weight, over actual body weight, which is preferred for many emergency medications. - Updated with additional essential medications for both EMS and the ER. - Contains a separate section, Quick Access Meds, for those medications needed immediately. A reference at each color bar on the tape informs you of equipment sizes to perform emergency resuscitation on the child. A reference at each weight zone on the tape shows pre-calculated medication dosages. Designated resuscitation equipment is contained in corresponding, color coded equipment pouches (not included). 1. Measure the child with the Broselowr Tape. This gives you an accurate weight estimate, equipment sizes, and drug dosages. 2. Reach into the bag for exactly the right equipment for I.V., intubation, O2 delivery, or intraosseous access. There's no guessing. Folds to 3 5/8" x 6" and unfolds to 3 5/8" x 60"
