It's important for ALL pre-hospital EMS providers to understand how to

estimate normal weights in children.

A great formula is found in Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine, to wit:

AGE WEIGHT IN KILOGRAMS

<12 months Half of the age in months plus 4

1-10 years Twice the age in years plus 10

Somebody come up with a MNEMONIC for this!!!!!
