Daytonite, BSN, RN Specializes in med/surg, telemetry, IV therapy, mgmt. Has 40 years experience. May 26, 2009 the infusion nurses society publishes infusion nursing standards of practices. it is an official publication of january 2006 that you must buy from them since they are the proprietary owners of this material. you will not find them printed in the internet. it is 92 pages long and you need to go to their website to buy it. most hospitals base many of their policies on the ins standards. i have periodically printed exerpts from the standards on posts.https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-student/central-lines-how-340116.html - central lines how often do you flush??? helphttps://allnurses.com/general-nursing-discussion/documenting-iv-insertion-329274-page2.html - documenting an iv insertion?https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-discussion/choosing-iv-catheter-328717.html - choosing iv catheter lumenins website: http://www.ins1.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=1 Edited May 26, 2009 by Daytonite 0 Likes
