  dosage calculation practice problems: Dosage Calculations for Nursing Students Nurse Academy, 2021-01-06 This is the official textbook on dosage calculations for nursing students created by Nurse Academy. Looking for the best dosage calculation book on Amazon? Look no further! For those struggling with basic and more complex nursing calculations, this is an essential text. This book represents a significant change in Nursing Practices with chapters being rearranged and consolidated. It is also designed to help nursing students to practice the math relevant to administering drugs in the normal course of a drug round. As much as it is not designed to be difficult, it will make students think. The list of decimals, fractions, and percentages given in the book are something you must learn. Most nurses and practitioners have already covered this at school. The book has employed the CASE approach, which is a step-by-step method for performing dosage calculations, drawn by the author from extensive experience across the continuum of care to bring a truly informative and dynamic resource to the readers. The book is presented in an order which follows a logical and sequential tract. Examples are offered and each chapter is interspersed with exercises for the reader to test their understanding. The review of Basic Calculations has been well revised, with more explanations and elaborations included in the worked examples. The three methods of dosage calculation are presented side-by-side in table format for every dosage calculation, updated chapter references, updated content for dosing, and safe injection practices per CDC Guidelines and the Joint Commission. New information on heparin dosage protocol to reflect clinical environment practices has also been included. The chapters are devoted to the review of basic calculations, dosages of oral medications, drug doses for injection, intravenous infusion, and pediatric doses. This is a very useful book for nursing students who often wrestle with the complexities and nuances of drug calculation and administration. It works well as either a reference or as a read through. I would not recommend reading this book in one sitting; otherwise, numbers, facts, and figures will begin to blur into one. Throughout the book, drug dosages have been revised and updated. It must be noted that the aim of Nursing Calculations is to teach relevant skills in arithmetic and this book is not meant to be used as a pharmacology reference. We look forward to your feedback!★★★★★ Nurse Academy
