Calculate the creatinine clearance for Lola, a 69 year old woman who weighs 66kg and has a serum creatinine of 125micromoles/L. Round your answer to 2 decimal places Cockroft Gault equation: [ X (140-age) x (weight in kg)] / serum creatinine (in micromole/L) Where X = 1.04 for females and X = 1.23 for males

An 84 year old male patient has been given a loading dose of digoxin of 298 micrograms in divided doses by intravenous infusion. He has a creatinine clearance (Ccr) of 34 ml / min. What is the maintenance dose (in micrograms) that this patient should receive? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use the formula provided to calculate the maintenance dose. Maintenance Dose = Peak body stores x % daily loss 100 Where: Peak Body Stores = Loading Dose % Daily Loss = 14 + Creatinine clearance (Ccr) 5
