IV push meds help

i'm assuming she is looking for a chart that tells her how fast specific iv medciations are to be pushed, is that correct? there is only one site that i know of that you can get access to a chart of iv meds and how fast they are to be pushed iv. that is at this site:

http://www.musc.edu/pharmacyservices/ - to access the pharmacy policy manual click on "pnp alpha index" on the left side of this web page. you will get the index listing of the pharmacy services of the medical university of south carolina. you can find two different iv push medication charts (adult and pediatric) here by clicking on the following links: iv push chart - adults and iv push chart - pediatric

http://www.csi-infusion.com/admin/newsposter/attachments/2-04tests.pdf - this article from csi infusion services has a chart on the third page of antibiotics that can be safely administered via iv push and how fast they can be administered this way.

many facilities are moving toward using mini-infusers, or piston driven infusion pumps for direct iv push medications for safety purposes.

this site will give her an idea of the kinds of medications one particular facility allows it's nurses to give iv push. please tell her that it is important that the policy manual at each facility needs to be consulted as many facilites specifically list out the medications rns are allowed to give iv push. there are some medications nurses don't want to be given iv push.

http://pharmacy.uams.edu/pnp/policy%20907.htm - here is a copy of the university of arkansas for medical sciences department of pharmacy policies and procedures that specifically lists out the medications that nurses are and are not permitted to give by iv push.

hope this is what you are looking for and that it helps.
