You are required to compound Aminophylline Suppositories for a patient: the density of Cocoa butter is 0.9 g/mL, the suppository mold volume is 2 mL, Aminoplylline has a Density Displacement Factor of 1.1 and each suppository should contain 200 mg Aminophylline. What is the calculated weight of ONE Aminophylline-loaded suppository?

You are working as a practice pharmacist and have been asked to help the practice reduce expenditure on medicines. As a result, you are reviewing the use of Osteofix 4 mg m/r tablets, as these costs more than Osteofix 2 mg tablets at an equivalent dose. (A patient would either take Osteofix 4mg m/r 1 tablet once daily or osteofix 2mg twice daily). Current costs are shown below: Osteofix 4 mg m/r tablets £25.78 per 28 tablets Osteofix 2 mg tablets £2.88 per 56 tablets   You have found 6 patients who are suitable for the switch. What is the total saving for the practice per 84 days assuming 6 suitable patients switch to using the osteofix 2 mg tablets? Give your answer to the nearest pound. unit £

Recent research into the cost of various medical procedures has shown the impact of certain complications encountered in surgery on the total cost of a patient’s stay in the hospital. The researchers used regression analysis and found the following results:   Total cost for patient = Constant, plus   a × Length of stay (measured in days), plus b × Presence of one or more complications (= 1 if true, 0 if false), plus c × Use of a laparoscope (= 1 if true, 0 if false)   where a, b, c are coefficients of the regression model. The laparoscope is an instrument somewhat like a miniature telescope with a fiber-optic system that brings light into the abdomen. It is about as big around as a fountain pen and twice as long.   The research, based on 63 patients, showed the following regression results:   R-squared: 56% Constant term: $3,158   Coefficients and t-values for independent variables:     Length of Stay Complications Laparoscope Coefficient $ 887 $ 1,912 $ 928 t-value 7.51 5.30…

Return to the waiting times given for the physicians office in Problem 19. a. Considering only offices without a wait-tracking system, what is the z-score for the 10th patient in the sample (wait time 5 37 minutes)? b. Considering only offices with a wait-tracking system, what is the z-score for the 6th patient in the sample (wait time 5 37 minutes)? How does this z-score compare with the z-score you calculated for part a? c. Based on z-scores, do the data for offices without a wait-tracking system contain any outliers? Based on z-scores, do the data for offices without a wait-tracking system contain any outliers? 19. Suppose that the average waiting time for a patient at a physicians office is just over 29 minutes. To address the issue of long patient wait times, some physicians offices are using wait-tracking systems to notify patients of expected wait times. Patients can adjust their arrival times based on this information and spend less time in waiting rooms. The following data show wait times (in minutes) for a sample of patients at offices that do not have a wait-tracking system and wait times for a sample of patients at offices with such systems. a. What are the mean and median patient wait times for offices with a wait-tracking system? What are the mean and median patient wait times for offices without a wait-tracking system? b. What are the variance and standard deviation of patient wait times for offices with a wait-tracking system? What are the variance and standard deviation of patient wait times for visits to offices without a wait tracking system? c. Create a box plot for patient wait times for offices without a wait-tracking system.
