X-factor

I was wondering if anyone has any good websites for x-factor calculations. I have been browsing around the web and haven't found anything. They didn't teach us this last semester but we are held accountable for it so I just wanted to find some examples so I can practice doing them. Thanks for any help

I thought I'd heard of everything. What are x-factor calculations?

I am not 100% sure, but I think it has something to do with calculating drips in the ICU setting. I know it has something to do with mcg/kg/min. It is what my school calls these calculations, and when I did my ICU rotation I got scolded from not knowing how to do these. But the school never offered any teaching about it either.

I was so counting on you knowing what I was talking about Daytonite.

ok. i didn't know these had a name. there are a few tutorials as well as links to medication calculation problems on post #3 of the sticky thread below. one of them is a link to a textbook companion that has a chapter that shows how to do these problems, if i remember correctly.

i will work problems for you if you post them for me. i work them by dimensional analysis.
