Inflammation of a vein that can lead to complications.

A scale used to grade the severity of phlebitis.

No clinical symptoms of phlebitis.

Slight erythema or pain at the IV site.

Leakage of IV fluid into surrounding tissue.

Medications that can cause blistering if they infiltrate.

Problems that arise from central venous infusion therapy.

Regular checks for IV insertion site based on various factors.

Dislodgement refers to the accidental displacement of the Central Venous Access Device (CVAD) from its intended position.

A type of catheter that contains multiple channels (lumens) allowing simultaneous delivery of different solutions.

Lumens are the individual channels in a catheter, named proximal, medial, or distal based on their location.

Catheters that exit the skin away from the insertion site, providing stability and infection prevention.

A part of tunneled catheters that helps stabilize the catheter and reduces infection risk by allowing tissue adherence.

Devices used for long-term therapy that are placed under the skin, requiring minimal maintenance when not in use.

A special needle used to access implanted ports without damaging the septum, allowing multiple punctures.

The major blood vessels in the body where a catheter tip is positioned to deliver medications directly into circulation.

A process of testing volunteers to ensure blood is safe.

Transfusion of specific blood components instead of whole blood.

Classification based on antigens on RBC surfaces.

Destructive reaction when incompatible blood is transfused.

Antigen indicating positive or negative blood type.

Proteins on white blood cells crucial for immune response.

Critical process ensuring correct blood samples are matched.

One unit of blood can help multiple patients through separation.

Used for symptomatic anemia and blood loss.

Replaces missing coagulation factors for bleeding risks.

Bleeding caused by low platelet count or dysfunction.

Given to neutropenic patients with infections unresponsive to antibiotics.

Used for volume expansion when crystalloid solutions aren't enough.

Stored according to strict standards before transfusion.

O type can donate to anyone; AB receives from all.

Required confirmation before transfusion orders are placed.

Ensure adequate IV access and necessary supplies are ready before transfusion.

Verification of blood product by two licensed staff members before administration.

Confirming blood type compatibility between donor and recipient before transfusion.

Close monitoring for reactions, especially in the first 15 minutes.

Reaction caused by infusing ABO-incompatible blood, leading to fever and chills.

Assessment of vital signs and respiratory status before starting transfusion.

Ongoing evaluation of vital signs and patient comfort every hour during transfusion.

Blood products must be infused within 4 hours to remain effective.

Filters used for blood infusion are 170-260 microns to catch debris.

The minimum recommended gauge for blood transfusion is 18.

Intravenous nutrition when oral routes are inadequate, risks involved.

TPN solutions provide proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids.

TPN provides proteins as amino acids for tissue repair.

T získ provide energy and essential fatty acids in TPN.

TPN requires collaboration between healthcare professionals for effective management.
