Infusion therapy standards

Infusion therapy standards ensure that fluids, medications, or nutrients delivered through a vein are administered safely and effectively. These guidelines cover proper sterile techniques, correct equipment use, accurate dosing, and ongoing patient monitoring. The goal is to minimize risks like infection, infiltration, or complications, and to provide consistent, high-quality care. Adhering to these standards helps healthcare providers deliver treatments tailored to each patient's needs while maintaining safety and minimizing potential harm.
