Study Notes
Brand Completion
- Brand name: Midikuana
- Indications: Pain, fever, inflammation
- Absorption: Needs time to absorb, better absorption with good blood flow
- Structure: Larger surface area, greater lipid solubility
- Side effect: May cause diffiditations, kinase risk, fortoxility
- Toxicity: High with high doses
Administration
- Routes: By mouth, nose, stomach, eye
- Dissolvable: Dissolves before administration
- Forms: Oral, nasal, stomach, eye
- Eye Irrigation: Rinse with cool water, use pain medication before irrigation
- Injection: IV push or continuous fluids, pump integration (pulls from higher bag first)
- Fluid Compatibility: 94T incompatible with some fluids
- Storage: Refrigerate, may melt at room temperature
Clinical Considerations
- Patient Population: May be difficult for dehydrated patients
- Patient History: Consider diabetes, foot sensation issues, history of taking multiple medications
- Orders: Assess ability to administer, differentiate between similar pills (color, shape, function)
- Assessment: Verify medication use, monitor for changes in medication shape
- Insurance: Ask about insurance coverage
- Documentation: Note color and appearance, store in refrigerator, will melt at room temperature, use pain medication before irrigation, TB test result (bubble), insulin administration
- Clinical Situations: Urgent and emergent situations require detailed documentation
Clinical Monitoring
- Continuous Fluids: Slow IV push, one medication and disconnecting
- Non-Continuous Fluids: Pump integration
- Medication Administration: Continuous fluids pull from the higher bag first, small bag contains medication, primary bag contains fluids
- Peak Level: High level, monitor for peak
- Duration of Action: Monitor how long it takes for the medication to start dropping
- Titration: Monitor how long to run medication
- Orders: Check orders, PRN, verbal
- Assessments: History, ability to administer, confirm medication use, assess patient's ability to administer medication, monitor patient's condition.
