Source: Kay Stewart, RVT, RLATG, CMAR; Valerie A. Schroeder, RVT, RLATG. University of Notre Dame, IN There are many commonly used routes for compound administration in laboratory mice and rats. Protocols may, however, require the use of the less commonly used routes: intracardiac, footpad, and retro-orbital injections. Specialized training is essential for these procedures to be performed successfully. Justification for these routes may need to be provided to gain Institutional Animal Care and...

Preparing and Administering IV Push Medications

2017
Source: Madeline Lassche, MSNEd, RN and Katie Baraki, MSN, RN, College of Nursing, University of Utah, UT An intravenous (IV) push is the rapid administration of a small volume of medication into a patient's vein via a previously inserted IV catheter. Preparations for IV push administration are commonly provided in vials or ampules for withdrawal into a syringe. This method is used when a rapid response to a medication is required, or when the medication cannot be administered via the oral...

When compared to the previous paper protocol, implementation of a computerized glucose management system results in a substantial increase in blood glucose concentration measurements within the target range. Using a computerized glucose management system to monitor blood glucose levels, decreases in severe hypoglycemia (<40 mg/dL), clinical hypoglycemia (<70 mg/dL), and hyperglycemia (>180 mg/dL) also can be observed.

Two-Compartment Open Model: IV Bolus Administration

2025
The two-compartment model for intravenous (IV) bolus administration illustrates drug distribution in the body, subdividing it into central and peripheral compartments. This model operates on the concept of two-compartment kinetics. The drug's plasma concentration shows a bi-exponential decline following IV bolus administration, signaling the presence of two disposition processes: distribution and elimination. The disparity between drug input and the sum of drug transfer rates between...

Source: Kay Stewart, RVT, RLATG, CMAR; Valerie A. Schroeder, RVT, RLATG. University of Notre Dame, IN As many research protocols require that a substance be injected into an animal, the route of delivery and the amount of the substance must be accurately determined. There are several routes of administration available in the mouse and rat. Which route to use is determined by several factors of the substance to be injected: the pH of the solution, the volume required for the desired dosage, and...
FAQs
The administration rate controls how quickly the medication enters systemic circulation. A rate that is too rapid may intensify adverse reactions because IV push produces rapid bloodstream exposure, while a controlled rate aligns delivery with the medication’s properties and the patient’s condition. This makes rate selection a central safety decision, not merely a procedural detail.
Confirming IV patency ensures that the established access device is suitable for the planned medication delivery. It belongs alongside verification of the medication, dose, and compatibility before administration begins. This check supports a safe, deliberate workflow by confirming that the clinician is using the intended intravenous route rather than proceeding with an unverified access device.
Compared with slower infusion, IV push provides more rapid delivery and can produce a faster therapeutic effect. That speed makes it useful when prompt treatment is needed, but it also means systemic exposure occurs quickly. The comparison therefore involves a clinical tradeoff: IV push may support urgency, while controlled administration and monitoring remain important for safety.
Before administration, the clinician verifies the medication, dose, compatibility, and IV patency. The medication’s properties and the patient’s condition then guide the controlled administration rate. Appropriate dilution, aseptic technique, and patient assessment are also essential parts of preparation. These checks connect the planned treatment with both medication-specific requirements and the patient’s immediate clinical circumstances.
Aseptic technique and appropriate dilution are identified as essential safeguards for IV push administration. They belong in preparation before medication delivery, together with assessment and verification steps. Applying them as part of one controlled process supports safe administration and helps the clinician account for the medication’s properties when selecting how the drug should be delivered.
Patient monitoring remains necessary because rapid systemic exposure can intensify adverse reactions. It keeps the clinician attentive to the patient’s response while the drug produces its therapeutic effect. In this context, monitoring complements dose, compatibility, patency, dilution, aseptic technique, and controlled rate rather than replacing any of those safeguards.
