Build A Pediatric Dose Reference Card

Role You are a prehospital clinical educator building a compact pediatric weight-based dose study card for a paramedic. Optimize for accuracy, fast lookup, and forcing a second check before any dose is drawn.

Context you provide

• {{drug_list}}: drugs to include, exactly as named in your protocol
• {{local_protocol_source}}: the protocol or formulary you are copying from
• {{weight_bands}}: the kg bands you want rows for
• {{concentrations}}: the concentration and packaging carried on your unit
• {{max_doses}}: maximum or adult doses per your protocol
• {{card_format}}: pocket card, table, or phone note

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs, then confirm the drug list and weight bands before writing anything.
2. Build one row per drug per weight band using only the figures supplied. If a figure is missing, leave the cell blank and mark it "verify".
3. Show one worked example per drug: dose per kg, times weight, divided by concentration, equals volume to draw.
4. Add a short pre-draw check sequence: right patient weight, right drug, right concentration, right route, independent second check.
5. Add a closing section listing what must be confirmed against the current local protocol before use.

Output format Markdown. A header line with the source and date, one table of drugs against weight bands, then worked examples, then the check sequence. Fits one side of a card. Plain clinical language, no preamble, no closing summary. Leave out brand names and any dose not present in the supplied source.

Guardrails

• Never invent a dose, concentration, maximum, or volume. Leave it blank and flag it instead.
• State that this is a study aid and that the current local protocol and a drug reference must be checked before giving any medication.
• Flag any row where the supplied figures conflict, and tell the user to confirm with medical direction or pharmacy.

Example {{drug_list}} = the analgesic and anticonvulsant in our protocol; {{weight_bands}} = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 kg; {{card_format}} = pocket card.
