Final answer:

The recommended dose of amiodarone during Pediatric CPR is 5 mg/kg, with a maximum initial dose of 300 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The recommended dose of amiodarone during Pediatric CPR is 5 mg/kg. However, the maximum initial dose should not exceed 300 mg.

For example, if the child weighs 30 kg, the dose of amiodarone would be 150 mg (5 mg/kg x 30 kg). If the child weighs more than 60 kg, the maximum initial dose of 300 mg should still be followed.

It is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper dosing and administration of any medication.
