IN THE SPOTLIGHT

MORE DRUGS IN YOUR CRIs!
Many VINners use the Constant Rate Infusion Calculator to figure out what volume of any single drug to add to the fluid bag, but what if you want to give a multi-drug CRI?

 

Now you can! Calculate one of several lidocaine/ketamine cocktails for convenient anesthesia customized for each patient.

 

If you like the Constant Rate Infusion Calculator you'll love the VIN Suite of Calculators and Conversion tables. Use MyCalculations to save, print, compare and share results from different visits.
