Ringers.
40 units = 40 x 6.667 = 266.68 mu
266.68 mu = 1000
5 mu = x
X = 1000 x 5/266.68 = 18.75 ml/hr.
The IV pump to be set on 18.75 ml/hr.

How to calculate the heart rate from the electrocardiogram ?​
Masja [62]

Answer:

ECG paper is a grid where time is measured along the horizontal axis.

Each small square is 1 mm in length and represents 0.04 seconds.

Each larger square is 5 mm in length and represents 0.2 seconds.

Voltage is measured along the vertical axis.

10 mm is equal to 1mV in voltage.

The diagram below illustrates the configuration of ECG graph paper and where to measure the components of the ECG wave form

Heart rate can be easily calculated from the ECG strip:

When the rhythm is regular, the heart rate is 300 divided by the number of large squares between the QRS complexes.

For example, if there are 4 large squares between regular QRS complexes, the heart rate is 75 (300/4=75).

The second method can be used with an irregular rhythm to estimate the rate. Count the number of R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10.

For example, if there are 7 R waves in a 6 second strip, the heart rate is 70 (7x10=70).

In traditional chinese medicine, the life force contained in all living things is called?
ddd [48]

Qi

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is thousands of years old and has altered little through the decades. Its central idea is that a life energy known as Qi flows through the body. Any imbalance to Qi can cause sickness and illness.

Most often, it is believed that this imbalance is brought on by a change in the opposing and complementing energies that make up the Qi. These are termed yin and yang.

The ancient Chinese held that because of our interconnectedness with nature and vulnerability to its effects, we are microcosms of the broader surrounding cosmos. A crucial idea is finding a balance between health and sickness.

TCM medicine tries to restore this equilibrium through treatment customized to the person.
