Math 123 Quantitative Reasoning Section 11 Dosage Calculation Error Assignment Dosage Error Calculations Assignment Last month Hometown Hospital admitted more than the usual number of patients due to a pneumonia outbreak in the area. This pneumonia was widespread affecting men, women, and children of all ages. Unfortunately, there were some major complications that developed with these patients. These severe cases are still in critical condition. Hospital officials have gathered some basic chart data from the pneumonia patients that were admitted during a 3day period. Patient Gender Weight Dosage received (morning) Dosage received (afternoon) Dosage received (evening) A M 182 lb 551 mg 551 mg 551 mg B F 145 lb 439 mg 439 mg 439 mg C F 87 lb 1279 mg 1279 mg 1279 mg D M 63 lb 926 mg 926 mg 926 mg E M 32 lb 470 mg 470 mg 470 mg F F 253 lb 766 mg 766 mg 766 mg G M 287 lb 869 mg 869 mg 869 mg H F 47 lb 691 mg 691 mg 691 mg Each patient received the same medication: Cefaclor (20mg/kg/day; not to exceed recommended dosage in a 24 hour period) As an outside evaluator, your job is to determine if this data is correct and report your findings to me by the due date given. This information will be used during an inquiry of hospital personnel. This is to investigate the possible liability of the hospital and/or the drug manufacturer. Your report should be at least one page in length and include the following information: A chart indicating patient, gender, weight (based on dosage information) and recommended dosage for each patient (based on total dosage for 24-hour period and individual dosages). Excel might be useful for this! If discrepancies are found, indicate the error(s) with a detailed report of what findings you discovered. Give a detailed analysis for every error found with the corrections noted. Report additional findings or conclusions based on this information. Does this appear to be a hospital or drug manufacturer error? Explain. Your Report must be submitted via Blackboard and will be graded using the rubric included in your syllabus
