About this episode

This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation.

In this episode you will learn: - The critical conversion factor between pounds and kilograms (1 kg = 2.2 lb) and how to apply it in dosage calculations. - The standard medical conversion for milliliters to teaspoons (1 tsp = 5 mL) for liquid medication administration. - The specific formulas for converting temperatures between Celsius and Fahrenheit and how to avoid common calculation errors. - The patient safety rules for using leading zeros (e.g., 0.5 mg) and avoiding trailing zeros (e.g., 5 mg, not 5.0 mg) to prevent medication errors. - How to use dimensional analysis to systematically solve conversion problems and the importance of performing a final reasonableness check to verify your answer.
