  1. concurrent vs. piggyback

    purplemana posted a topic in General Nursing
    though this sounds stupid but concurrent means both the secondary and primary are running at the same time and piggyback means the secondary runs first then when its all done the primary takes over. the pump that we use in clinicals is an abbott plum a one more thing is it possible to run piperacillin @ 100ml/hr concurrent with NSS w/ Kcl 20meq please be mindful of the comments thanks

  2. concurrent piggyback

    purplemana posted a topic in General Nursing
    correct me if i'm wrong but concurrent piggyback ivs are for when your secondary iv run for a lesser amt than the primary? today in my clinical my pt. had a piggyback of piperacillin 50 ml so VTBI/hr is 100ml/hr primary i believe, sorry for my faulty memory is NaCl 9% w/Kcl 20meq/ 1000ml @ 20ml/hr my pt's other iv piggyback was a Mag Rider @100ml/hr my other question is when do you do or when is it advisable to do a piggyback or a concurrent iv
