Broselow® Pediatric Emergency Tape

NEW 2011 Edition A Broselow Pediatric Tape.

A reference at each color bar on the tape informs you of equipment sizes to perform emergency resuscitation on the child. A reference at each weight zone on the tape shows pre-calculated medication dosages. Designated resuscitation equipment is contained in corresponding, color coded equipment pouches (not included). 5 per package.

The 2011 version of the Broselow Tape incorporates revised length weight zones based on the most recent National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data set.

*If the healthcare provider incorporates a visual estimate of body habitus into the prediction, the accuracy of the estimate of actual patient weight is improved as confirmed in multiple studies. Specifically, for drug dosing the patient’s length-based dosing zone if the child appears overweight. Thus, incorporating a visual estimate of whether the child is over-weight provides a simple method to predict weight that appears to be clinically relevant given the rise of obesity in the United States.
