Abstract
Optimum concentrations for a drug administered as a medical infusion to a patient, particularly a pediatric patient, are determined. The determination is made using inputs regarding (1) the drug to be administered; (2) the patient; and (3) the infusion process. The optimum concentrations are displayed to a user, such as any health care provider. A chart illustrating the distributions of concentrations over a range of doses and patient weights is also provided.
