7 IV Medication Mistakes with Antibiotics: A CEU course for Registered Nurses to learn how to give 100 percent of Intravenous Piggyback (IVPB) Medications.
Step by step guide showing nurses how to program an IV pump to give the entire dose of antibiotics or other essential IV medication.
This course highlights the 7 main areas of nursing mistakes, and how the simple "Holt Rules" for calculating the "volume to infuse" to program into the IV pump will give patients a much better chance of surviving their infection.
This course is a follow up to David Holt's 2,014 book, "25 to 50 percent of antibiotics do not reach the patient" which included survey techniques, nursing policies and a quality improvement tool for Hospitals to make changes.
Antibiotic medication mistakes focusses on the individual nurse, and how he or she needs to make the cognitive leap to realize that many RNs have not been taught the fundamentals of clearing antibiotics from IV tubing. One RN at a time, we must all learn to give full doses of antibiotics.
Seven unique errors are described and then resolved. We include very basic math and Holt's IV Rules to get all RNs to give 100 percent of every antibiotic (and potassium, magnesium, and other products) to his or her patient.
We give the tools to help your patient recover from sepsis, pneumonia or massive leg infections without developing multi drug resistant organisms due to most RNs only giving half a dose of antibiotic.
We also include a "call to action" to encourage RNs to help their colleagues and the entire hospital to become proficient in this vital nursing skill.

About the Author

Holt's first IV book "25 to 50 percent of antibiotics do not reach the patient" brought attention to the fact that 95 percent of RNs leave half of the patients antibiotic in the IV tubing.

This new book gives RNs 7 simple changes to incorporate into their everyday nursing practice to avoid the 7 most common oversights related to saving a patients life by giving a full dose of antibiotics in the correct time frame.
