Objectives of Discussion
• Nursing responsibilities before, during and after IVI therapy
• Complications of IVI therapy• Intravenous therapy calculations
What is an Intravenous Infusion
What is an Intravenous Infusion
A solution administered into a vein through an infusion set that includes a plastic or glass vacuum bottle or bag containing the solution and tubing connecting the bottle/ bag to a branula/ catether in the patient's vein.
What is IVI Therapy
• Intravenous infusion therapy is the administration of drugs by inserting a hypodermic needle directly into a vein and allowing medication to run through it.
(IV push)
Indications for IVIs
Indications for IVIs
• To correct electrolyte imbalances• Administration of medications• Administration of blood and blood • products• Administration of total parenteral Nutrition• Haemodynamic monitoring
Indications for IVI Therapy
• Blood sampling• Chemotherapy
Types of IVIs
• Volume expanders (crystolloids and colloids)
• Blood based products• Blood substitutes (Gelafusine)• Medication• Nutrition
Volume Expanders• Colloids• Solution that contain large molecules that do not pass
through the cell membranes.• When infused they remain in the intravascular space and expand the intravascular volume and they draw fluid from the extravascular space because of their higher oncotic pressure
Volume Expanders
• Crystalloids• Solutions that contain small molecules that
flow easily across the cell membranes allowing for transfer from the
bloodstream into the body cells and tissues. This will increase fluid in the intravascular and interstitial space
Volume Expanders
Fluids can be further classified into1.Isotonic2.Hypotonic3.Hypertonic
Isotonic Solutions
• Most IV therapy solutions are isotonic. Isotonic solutions are designed to match the makeup of your intracellular fluid and are equal in osmotic pressure inside
and outside your cells. This prevents any fluid shifting in and out of your cells.
Examples of Isotonic Solutions
• Dextrose 5% in water (D5W), • Lactated Ringer's solution • Normal Saline Solution (0.9% sodium
chloride.)• Ringer’s Solution
Indications for Normal Saline
• Fluid volume deficit eg. Haemorrhage severe vomiting diarrhea
• Shock• Mild hyponatremia• Metabolic acidosis• Resusitation efforts• Blood administration
Indications for Ringers Lactate of Hartman’s solution
• Burn injuries and trauma• GI tract fluid losses• Acute blood loss or hypovolemia• Fistula drainage
Indications for 5% Dextrose Water
• Low blood sugar• Insulin shock• Dehydration• Nutritional support• Diluent for medications
Indications for Ringers Solution
• Burns • Trauma • Surgery
Hypotonic Solutions
• Hypotonic solutions have lesser tonicity than that of the ICF because it has lesser solute concentration. ICF becomes more concentrated, it pulls water from the
ECF, thus, makes the cell swell.
Types of Hypotonic Solutions
• 0.45% NaCl (half strength normal saline)•
0.33% NaCl ( one third strength normal saline)
•2.5% Dextrose in water
Indications for Hypotonic Solutions
Purpose:•used to provide free water and treat cellular dehydration.•Note: Free water is desirable to aid the kidneys in elimination of solute via urine output.
Hypertonic Solutions
• Hypertonic solutions have solute concentration in ECF greater than that of the ICF. Therefore, it pulls fluids out of the ICF and the cell shrinks.
Types of Hypertonic Solutions
• D5 in 0.45% NaCl ( 5% Dextrose in half strength normal saline)
• D5LR (5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringer's Solution)• D10W ( 10% Dextrose in water)• D50W50 (50% Dextrose in 50 ml of water)
Indications for Hypertonic Solutions
• Hypertonic solution draws fluids from the ICF causing cells to shrink and ECF to expand.
• Given to patients with hyponatremias (Na deficits) with edema.
Indications for Solutions
• Aside from being isotonic, hypotonic & hypertonic. IVF may also come in a form of nutrient solution, electrolyte solution, alkalizing solution & acidifying solution....
Supplies and Equipment Needed
• Needles and syringe• Branula • Intravenous Fluid • Intravenous Tubing• Tape• Cleaning apparatus
Site Selection
Veins of the arm Antecubital fossa •1. Cephalic vein•2. Basilic vein•3. Median antebrachial vein Dorsum of the hand (dorsal digital network) Wrist Forearm (cephalic, antebrachial)
Site Selection
• Veins of the hand
Site Selection
Veins of the foot•Great saphenous vein•Lesser saphenous vein•Dorsal venous arch
Site Selection
• Extra jugular vein (if necessary)• Scalp veins
Quick Note
• Use veins that provide ease of access• Non dominant limb• Avoid joint areas• If lower extremities and the scalp can be avoided do so• Choose an area that can accommodate the branulae• Try to select straight veins
Procedure Involved
• Select a suitable vein for venepuncture.
• Prepare the venepuncture site.
Procedure Involved
(1) Apply a constricting band two inches above the venepuncture site. The constricting band should be tight enough to occlude venous flow, but not so tight that distal pulses are lost.
Procedure Involved
(2) Select and palpate a prominent vein.
(3) Cleanse the skin with an alcohol swab using a spiral motion starting with the
entry site and extending outward about two inches. Allow the site to dry.
(4) Don gloves.
Procedure Involved
• d. Perform the venepuncture.
• (1) Using your non-dominant hand, pull all local skin taut to stabilize the vein.• (2) With your dominant hand, position the distal bevel of the needle up and insert the branula into the vein at approximately a 30 degree angle.
Procedure Involved
• (3) Continue inserting the needle until blood is observed in the flash chamber of the catheter.
• (4) Decrease the angle to 15 to 20 degrees and carefully advance the cannula approximately 0.5
centimeter farther.
Procedure Involved
• (5) While holding the needle stationary, advance the catheter into the vein with a twisting motion. Insert the catheter all the way to the hub.
• (6) Place a finger over the vein at the catheter tip and put pressure on the
vein to prevent blood from flowing out the catheter.
Procedure Involved
• (7) Remove the needle while maintaining firm catheter control.
• e. Remove the constricting band.
• f. Obtain venous blood samples as required.
Procedure Involved
• g. Attach the administration tubing to the branula hub while maintaining
stabilization of the hub with the non- dominant hand.
Procedure Involved
• h. Open the flow-regulator clamp and observe for drips in the drip chamber. Allow the fluid to run freely for several seconds.
• Note: You may drop the solution bag lower than the casualty's heart to observe for a back flash of blood to verify catheter placement.
Procedure Involved
• i. Adjust to the desired flow rate.
• j. Clean the area of blood, if necessary, and secure the hub of catheter with
tape, leaving the hub and tubing connection visible. Make a
small loop in the IV tubing and place a second piece of tape over the first to secure the loop.
Procedure Involved
• k. Apply a 2x2, a 4x4 micropore tape over the venipuncture site.
• l. Label a piece of tape with date and time the IV was initiated, the catheter size, and your initials. Secure the tape over the dressing.
Procedure Involved
• m. Monitor the casualty and continues to observe the venipuncture site for signs of infiltration. Discontinue the infusion if signs of infiltration are observed.
• n. Remove your gloves and disposes of them appropriately.
Procedure Involved
• Document the procdure in the patient’s notes
Types of Vascular Access Devices
• Peripheral branula: short term use inserted into the peripheral veins of arms and foot (48-96 hrs)
• Midline catheters: designed for short term use, inserted peripherally up to 20cm into the vein
Types of Vascular Access Devices
• Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) used medium term to long term for total parenteral nutrition
• Percutaneous central venous catheter• Hickman line( Long term use)
Nursing Responsibilities
• Patient should be correctly identified and consent where applicable explained and signed
• Procedure explained for cooperation• The medical order is verified by a second nurse• Observe the rights of the patient
Nursing Responsibilities
• Use aseptic techniques to keep devices free from infection
• Ensure devices used in are undamaged• Ensure IV fluid is within its expiry date• Ensure IV administration is via a closed system
Nursing Responsibilities
• Any problems encountered during siting of IV is recorded or reported
• The infusion rate is calculated properly• The patients vital signs is done and their condition closely monitored• Maintain patency of the line
Nursing Responsibilities
• All actions are documented in the patients notes and on the fluid balance chart
Complications of IVI Therapy
• Phlebitis• Thrombophlebitis• Infiltration and extravasation• Infection• Circulatory overload• Anaphylaxis/allergic reactions
IVI Calculation
• Formula: • Volume (mL)• Time (min)x Drop Factor (gtts/mL) = Y
(Flow Rate in gtts/min)
Break Time!!!!!
• Two minutes water break.

Define Blood
Blood The fluid circulating through the blood vessels and,
carrying nutriment and oxygen to body cells, and removing
waste products and carbon dioxide It consists of plasma and the formed elements (erythrocytes, leukocytes, and
platelets)
Blood Types and GroupingPatient (Rh Positive) Donor
Packed Cells O Positive O Positive or Negative
A Positive A Positive or NegativeO Positive or Negative
B Positive B Positive or NegativeO Positive or Negative
AB Positive Any Group
Plasma O Any Group
A A , AB
B B, AB
AB AB
Blood Types and GroupingPatient (Rh Negative) Donor
Packed Cells O negative O Negative
A Negative A Negative
B Negative B Negative
AB Negative AB Negative
Blood Types and Grouping
• Universal Donor is ‘O’ (negative) which gives to all groups and receives only from itself
• Universal Recipient is ‘AB’ and receives blood from all groups and can give only to itself
Blood Transfusion Scenario
A patient who is A positive is hemorhaging during surgery. From your knowledge of blood typing and grouping which group would you select?
AB Positive O Negative B Positive
Define Blood Products
Blood Products The constituents of whole blood that are
used in replacement therapy
Types of Blood Products
Whole Blood Packed Red Blood Cells Plasma Cryoprecipitate Platelets Clotting Factors (VIII, IX)
Define Blood Transfusion
Blood transfusion is generally the process of receiving blood products into one's circulation intravenously
Indications For Blood Transfusions
To replace blood lost during surgery or in haemorrhage
To replace a deficiency of specific blood componients e.g. erythrocytes
To increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood as is Anaemia To increase the intravascular volume in shock
Information on Blood Bag
• Identification number• Client’s name• Blood group• Rhesus factor• Expiry date
Why is this information important
Storage of Blood
Blood

It should be kept in a cool area eg a air conditioned room Do not store platelets in a refrigerator
Storage and Handling of Blood
Do not place blood in a domestic refrigerator or freezer
Do not filter platelets during transfusion Use filter for plasma, red blood cells and cryoprecipitate during transfusion Do not store blood until its expiration date has passed
Storage and Handling of Blood
FFP must not be thawed unless there is surety of use
Allow all frozen products to thaw until they have reached room temperature Do not thaw frozen products by running them under the pipe or boiling it. Use a blood warmer
Storage and Handling of Blood
