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.
The thalamus, which is in charge of sensory perception and the  regulation of motor functions, receives signals from almost all  senses. The only exception to this is the se â¦ nse of smell.ll of our senses except for our sense of smell. They are controlled by a separate station, the olfactory bulb, which explains why certains smells seem to do such a good job at bringing back certain memories.
