Good morning! So excited to see your post, my name is a Morgan and I am a RN that works for Hospi (Macy Catheter). Here are a few recent publications you might find interesting: 1. Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing- Promoting Excellence in Symptom Management: Promoting Excellence in Symptom Management Case Series: Case... : Journal of Hospice & Palliative Nursing 2. American Journal of Emergency Medicine (3 Case Studies): http://www.ajemjournal.com/article/S0735-6757(15)00030-3/fulltext 3. Journal of Pain and Symptom Management (Pharmacokinetics of Phenobarbital in Microenema via Macy Catheter vs Suppository): http://www.jpsmjournal.com/article/S0885-3924(16)30047-1/fulltext Please let me know how I can help!

Thank you so much everyone...this information is REALLY helpful! I working on a project where I am trying to compile as many medications as I can that fit into this category. Really appreciate your help!

Nursing friends, I am doing a little bit of research. In your practice do you come across any medications that only come in the form of tablet and do not have an option for IV or IM administration? If so, would you mind letting me know the type of unit you work on and any info about the med(s)? For example, Buspirone (shivering suppression after a cardiac event) only comes as tablet. Thanks so much for your help!

Thank you so much or your help here!! This is fantastic information and I greatly appreciate you sharing your thoughts! I currently work in Clinical Affairs (Research) and have been out of direct patient care for a couple years, which is why I was really interested in connecting with RNs that are currently working in the ED space. If you would be open to it, I would love to try and connect and learn more about your background and experience at such a large facility. I am finding the best way to learn is to have conversations with the actual experts such as yourself! Absolutely no pressure, I know it is a very busy time of the year on top of work. Thank you again for your help here!!

Thank you SO much for taking the survey and comment, definitely a great point. I really appreciate your help!

Nursing friends! I need your help! I am a RN that has worked in Burn ICUs and OR, but doesn't have direct experience in the Emergency Department. I am working on a project that is accessing IV access in Emergency Department. If you are a ED RN or know of someone that works in the Emergency Department, would you please take this 2 minutes survey? https://survey.zohopublic.com/zs/u5idO3 I sincerely appreciate your help!! Please feel free to share!!
