For moderate-intensity physical activity, a person's target heart rate should be 50 to 70% of his or her maximum heart rate. This maximum rate is based on the person's age. An estimate of a person's maximum age-related heart rate can be obtained by subtracting the person's age from 220. For example, for a 50-year-old person, the estimated maximum age-related heart rate would be calculated as 220 - 50 years = 170 beats per minute (bpm).
Thus, moderate-intensity physical activity for a 50-year-old person will require that the heart rate remains between 85 and 119 bpm during physical activity.

Dmitry [639]
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.
