Abstract:
Objective To investigate a new method to reduce air bubbles formation during drug preparation. Methods 200 portions of drugs from hospital pharmacy were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group with 100 portions in each group. In the experimental group, the infusion bags were put flat on the desktop, the needles pierced into the bags parallel, and immersed in the liquid inside. In the control group, the infusion bags were put perpendicular to the desktop, the needle pierced into the bags vertically, the needles do not immersed in the liquid. Air bubble formation in the infusion bags was compared between the two groups. Results Air bubble formation in the experimental group was significantly less than that of the control group. Conclusions The modified new method for drug preparation can reduce the formation of air bubbles.
