The steady-state plasma concentration that is reached is 4.0 mg/L, so TC = 4.0 mg/L loading dose = 8 mg/hour Vd = loading dose/TC Vd = 8 mg/hour / 4 mg/L = 2 L What is the volume of distribution? CL = kVd t1/2 = 0.7 / k t1/2 = 0.7 Vd/CL Vd = CL * t1/2 / 0.7 Note that Clearance at a steady state can be calculated by: Dose <steady state> = CL * TC, so
As a regulator of sensory information, the thalamus also controls sleep and awake states of consciousness. Function: The thalamus is involved in several functions of the body including: 1  Motor Control. 2  Receives Auditory, Somatosensory and Visual Sensory Signals. 3  Relays Sensory Signals to the Cerebral Cortex.
(Redirected from Thalamic) The thalamus (from Greek Î¸Î¬Î»Î±Î¼Î¿Ï, chamber) is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory and motor signals to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.
