Local Anesthesia | Maximum Recommended Dose and Dosage Calculation

In this lecture, I have discussed on how to calculate the maximum recommended dose of local anesthetic Or in other words, how to calculate the dosage of a local anesthetic to be administered in a patient. - Maximum recommended dose ( MRD) is defined as that dose of an agent that can be safely administered in majority of the patient without facing the harmful effects of overdose. - Every local anesthetic agent that is being used in the world has a specific maximum recommended dose (MRD) , suggested by FDA. This maximum recommended dose is expressed in milligrams per kilogram or milligrams per pound of body weight. - To understand on how to make the calculations of dosage of local anesthesia, I have first discussed on the amount of actual drug present in a single cartilage of local anesthetic. - Furthermore, I have given examples to explain on how to calculate the amount of cartridges that can be safely administered in any patient. Watch the whole video to get a good insight on calculating the dosage of local anesthetic agent for any patient.
