Background-The Drug: Patients with acute or serious infections, such as Salmonella typhi or gramnegative bacteria causing meningitis, can be successfully treated with regular doses of Chloramphenicol. A patient weighing 150 pounds requires a dose of 850 milligrams, while a patient weighing 300lbs requires a dose of 1700 milligrams. Lab experiments have indicated that the concentration level C, in milligrams per milliliter, of the medication in the above patient's bloodstream is a function of the amount of time t, in hours, since the medication is given by the quadratic function: C(t)=−83.3t2+583.1t−170.4. For a drug to have a beneficial effect, its concentration in the bloodstream must exceed a certain value, called the minimum therapeutic level. The minimum therapeutic level of Chloramphenicol is 125mg/ml. Background-Patient: Weight: 240lbs. Background-Doctor's Orders: The doctor wishes to use a 10% solution of Chloramphenicol, administered through an intravenous (IV) injection. However, the hospital only carries 5% and 20% solutions of the required medication. Project-Your Report You need to prepare a report for the doctor and nurses in charge of the patient. Your explanation must include the following items: - Report all results and your work. - You should neatly do the math calculation. WPart 1-Dosage in milligrams [35 points] - Summarize the three uses for this drug after reading through the indication information found through a web search. - Determine a linear function for determining the dosage needed for a patient based on the patient's weight, in pounds. - Interpret the slope of this linear function. - The dosage, in milligrams, of Chloramphenicol needed for your patient. - Graph the linear function with appropriate domain and range using technology such as Desmos
Part 2-Mixing the solution [20 points] - Determine the amounts of each type of solution required to prepare 1000ml of the 10% solution. if dont know Part 3 Frequency of injections [25 points] - Determine how long after the IV injection it takes the medication to start working. - Determine how long after the IV injection it takes the medication to stop working. - Determine how often the medication should be administered. - Graph the function with appropriate domain and range using technology such as Desmos
