Although the label is small, it matters a lot.
Although all infusion bottles/bags should be labeled, the specific practices of different hospitals are still different:
# Why do you put the label on the infusion bottle #
In our hospital, the patient's name is written on the infusion bottle. When adding medicine, check again whether the name on the infusion card is consistent with the name on the infusion bottle, and whether the bottle card is consistent when inserting the infusion set. The infusion card is printed by computer.
# Handwritten labels are thankless #
What is printed here is the infusion patrol card. The infusion control card, bottle label and patrol card are the same. The patrol card is hung on the bedside. Directly printed self-adhesive infusion card, just paste it!
# How to solve the printing problem #
I think you should report it to the nursing department, which will communicate with the information department of your hospital before setting it up. A single nursing staff or department should not be able to complete such work.
Our hospital has set up a computer, which can be printed by inputting the doctor's orders. After printing, stick it on the bottle with glue, which is the kind of self-adhesive and very easy to use.
Printing bottle labels can avoid mistakes in copying and save time. If it is self-adhesive, the cost may be higher. Need the hospital information department to make special software.
As we all know, manual recording of infusion bottle labels has three disadvantages:
1, wasting time.
2, easy to make mistakes.
3. Waste of manpower.
Therefore, on the topic of transfusion bottle signature, if the nurse writes by hand, the department with few patients will be fine, and if there are many patients, the nurse can't finish the daily work at all, wasting time. At present, most hospitals print the labels of medicine bottles directly. After the label of the medicine bottle is printed, the nurse can stick it directly on the infusion bottle/bag.
It is still a little troublesome to stick the label of infusion bottle on the infusion bottle/bag with glue, but the label of self-adhesive bottle is very popular.
In fact, the label of self-adhesive bottle is similar to the price tag in the supermarket, but the hospital needs to buy a special machine and connect it with the computer. When preparing the long-term liquid for the next day, it will all be printed out (for example, 40 patients, each with more than 5 bags of liquid, can be finished in one minute). After printing, it will be directly attached to the infusion bottle/soft bag liquid, and the nurse in the pharmacy class will put the medicine and dispense it according to the label.
