HOW TO LABEL INTRAVENOUS FLUID
I. Objectives:
a. To label intravenous in a correct manner,
b. To enumerate the necessary information needed in the proper labeling
of intravenous fluids, and
c. To know the aseptic procedures done when intravenous fluid has
incorporations ordered.
3. In cases of incorporation which are lesser or greater than stock dose, how
are these changes made?
In any properly administered intravenous admixture program, all
basic fluids (large-volume solutions), additives (already in solution or
extemporaneously constituted), and calculations must be carefully
checked against the medication orders. If the incorporation is lesser or
greater than the stock dose, an interval should done before
incorporation.
4. What are the aseptic procedures done when IVF has incorporations
ordered?
Proper hand washing is an aseptic technique done when IVF has
incorporations ordered. Disinfection of the injection port of the vial and
the ampule before breaking and aspirating the right dose should also be
done. The cover of the administration set is also removed, maintain
sterility and the drug is aseptically incorporated into the airway
aseptically. The airway should be recapped afterwards [IVTeam Phils Hub,
2008].
