Pediatric Code (PALS) Dose Card
Weight (kg)
When to use
A rapid reference during pediatric resuscitation. It does not replace the PALS algorithm, two-person dose verification or high-quality CPR.
How it works
Epinephrine 0.01 mg/kg IV/IO (max 1 mg) q3–5min; amiodarone 5 mg/kg; adenosine 0.1 → 0.2 mg/kg; defibrillation 2 → 4 J/kg; fluid 20 mL/kg.
Key points
- Read back the drug and dose before administration.
- Measure weight where possible or use a Broselow tape.
- Use 10 mL/kg fluid boluses in cardiogenic shock, DKA and neonates.
- Verify all doses against your institution's protocol and the latest PALS guideline.
