To have some kind of context, torsemide is also known as the 'water pill' It induces you to produce more urine than usual. Since the doctor prescribed a daily dosage of 20 mg torsemide, this will be the basis of the nurse. If this medication is to be maintained within four days, then the total amount of dosage would be:

20 mg/day * 4 days = 80 mg 

The total dosage in 4 days would be 80 mg. But since only 10 mg tablets are available, you have to divide 80 by 10. This means that you need 8 of these 10-mg tablets within the course of four days.

nadezda [96]

<h3>What is Skin turgor?</h3>
  • Skin turgor is that the skin's elasticity and it's the ability of skin to change shape and return to normal.

  • Diarrhea or vomiting can cause fluid loss. Infants and young children with these conditions can rapidly lose plenty of fluid, if they are doing not take enough water. Fever accelerates this process.
  • To check for skin turgor, the health care provider grasps the skin between two fingers in order that it is tented up. Commonly on the lower arm or abdomen is checked. The skin is held for some seconds then released.
  • Skin with normal turgor snaps rapidly back to its normal position. Skin with poor turgor takes time to return to its normal position.
