Most common PICU drips

Published

Hello, I am new to PICU and I want to make a chart of the most common drugs/drips used in a PICU. I want a chart with class, mechanism of action, s/e's, contraindications, etc. Any input or help with this? Or does anyone have something that their educator has come up with or that you have? Any help would be awesome!

TIA!

There's a comprehensive list of commonly used PICU drugs here: https://allnurses.com/picu-nursing-pediatric/meds-you-see-775647.html The underlined drugs are often run as continuous infusions. If you build a spread sheet you should be able to develop a very nice chart.
