preemie

we use sucrose in our unit all the time. We use it for comfort measures and prior to IV attempts. The rep. for sweetease stated it can be given as often as needed and the amt doesn't have to be calculated. We draw it up in a syringe and drip it in their mouth or cheek, then offer the pacifier. You can also dip the pacifier in the solution.

Does your unit use on call? is it considered overtime? My hosp. is claiming it isn't overtime.
