Question

when making rounds on the pediatric neurology unit, the nurse manager notes that, when giving iv medications, many of the staff nurses are disconnecting the flush syringe first and then clamping the intermittent infusion device. the nurse manager is concerned that the nurses do not understand the benefits of positive pressure technique and turbulence flow flush in preventing clots. after the nurse manager discusses the problem with the staff educator, which intervention would be the most effective way to improve the nursing practice?

Answer 1

Reduce the I.V. flow rate and hang the recommended treatment intervention would be the most effective way to improve the nursing practice.

What should the nurse do?

The nurse should keep the I.V. access open and start the correct solution when a client is receiving the incorrect solution. The catheter does not need to be taken out by the nurse. The client would experience pointless needle sticks if this were done. Waiting until the next bottle is scheduled to be delivered is improper and puts both the client and the nurse in legal danger. The nurse should write out an incident report describing the precise problem after beginning the correct solution.
