Thank you for this video! I’m a last year medical student getting ready for my state exam in paediatrics! Keep up the good work, it really helps!

First time I'm actually understanding this calculation fully, i usually just nod in group discussions because I'm tired of asking the same questions😂. Never heard it explained this clearly.

Thanks alot for that presentation. My name is martin from another country and i think when it comes to giving insulin, we use a different method
Eg 25kg child
Take{ 25kg× 0.05iu/kg×10(number of hours you intend to infuse)} all these units, you put it in 100ml N/S . Then let it run for 10hrs as you monitor your blood sugars hourly.
