What is the bag IV?
IV bag is a glass bottle or plastic bag that is filled with basic liquids and medicines. It is used to administer these fluids directly into the body. The IV bag has long tubing connected to it, at the end of the tube with a hollow needle. This hollow needle is placed in a vein, usually on the fold of the arm or in the hand. Therapies such as this are referred to as intravenous drip and supply basic fluids to living.
Long sterile tubing can be seen at the bottom of IV bag, which connects to the hollow needle. This tube is attached to regulate how much fluid goes into the bloodstream. This allows a medical professional to monitor the flow of fluid and can also prevent entering the intravenous line of air bubbles. There is also a clamp on this line, which immediately stops the flow of fluids. When the basic fluids are stopped for a moment, other medicines such as the bloodstream antibioticado can also be administered.
One intravenous line is sometimes attached to an infusion pump. This pump closely regulates the amount of fluids and flow. The infusion pump is mainly used in patients who would have serious complications if the flow change. However, if there is no chance of dangerous complications, gravitational drip will be used. It is simply an IV bag with a clamp located on a tube and the bag is located above the patient's head for natural gravitational drip.
When essential fluids must be administered quickly, it is used by rapid infusion. Usually the plastic cuff is used to exert pressure on the IV bag. This allows fluids to be supplied faster into the bloodstream. A small electrical device can also be added to the IV bag to warm up the solution, which makes it more efficient.
with intrav there are many health risks therapy. Infections may occur whenever the skin is penetrated or broken. Bacteria can enter these breaks and create symptoms that include high fever and swellingor redness at the entrance point. If the infection enters the bloodstream, a life -threatening situation may become a situation in a few hours. When using intravenous therapy, an air bubble or a blood clot occurs, it is called embolism and, depending on the amount of air introduced into the veins, it may also turn into a life -threatening situation.
