    Study Notes

    • Intraosseous (IO) infusion is a technique for administering fluids, blood, or medications into the proximal tibia, humeral head, or sternum through the non-collapsible vein-like IO space.
    • Common sites for IO infusion include the sternum, proximal humerus, proximal tibia, and distal tibia.
    • Equipment for IO insertion includes manually inserted IO needles, FAST devices for patients 12 years and older, EZ-IO for adults and children, and the Bone Injection Gun (B.I.G.) for the proximal tibia.
    • Complications of IO infusion can include long-term bone growth abnormalities, fractures, and pulmonary embolism if insertion is not done correctly.
    • Contraindications for IO infusion include having a functional IV line available, bone fractures, osteoporosis, osteogenesis imperfecta, bilateral knee replacements, or a prosthetic limb at the IO site.
