Let’s Talk about Acute Kidney Injury We can break down origins of AKI into three categories: Prerenal, intrarenal, and postrenal 🫘Prerenal (Before/prior to the kidney) - these include issues which occur BEFORE the renal system, ultimately reducing blood flow to the kidneys. Examples include hemorrhage, trauma, hypovolemia due to burns, etc. 🫘Intrarenal (Within the kidney) - these describe issues originating within the renal system. Examples include kidney infection, trauma to the kidneys, neph

3 Common Errors with Foley Catheter Insertion #1 → Breaking Sterile Field Remember, this is a skill requiring sterile technique! If you break sterile field, always restart. Infection prevention is PRIORITY! #2 → Inflating Balloon Too Soon Do not inflate the balloon before you see urine flow through the drainage tube! Doing this can cause injury to the urethra. #3 → Incorrect Insertion Site Most commonly in females, the insertion attempt can sometimes be in the wrong place – remember, everyone’s

Primary vs. Secondary IV Tubing 💧 – 💦Primary Tubing – The primary IV fluids will connect to the primary IV tubing This tubing is longer! Extends from the IV fluid bag all the way to the patient’s saline lock –💧 Secondary Tubing – →Also called PIGGYBACK (used in addition to primary tubing) → Tubing is shorter in length! → Used to run medications with compatible primary IV fluids (e.g., IV antibiotics, electrolytes, analgesics) →The pump should be programmed to run for an ordered amount of time

💧How to Spike & Hang an IV Medication Bag Why do we even hang medications as secondary lines? Secondary bags or IV piggybacks are used to make sure the total amount of fluid in a smaller bag is administered to the patient. This is usually for intermittent medication. After the piggyback is emptied, some of the primary fluid flows through the line, pushing the rest of the medication in through the IV. What’s another way you can prime your secondary tubing? Put your answer in the comments. #IVMed

Med Administration via NG tube 💊 ✅If you aren’t administering by gravity (every order & patient is different!), be sure to flush gently and never attempt to force fluid or meds through the tube ✅⭐NCLEX Alert: If you have any hesitation about tube placement, an X-Ray is the GOLD STANDARD for verification! ✅Overmixing can create CLOGS… so don’t rush it. Be sure to administer finely crushed or liquid medications in multiple passes with flushes in between ✅HOB should remain above 30 degrees for 30

The Never’s of Medication Administration 💉 🗑️ Never prime IV fluids over a trash can (Infection risk) ⚠️ Never override things; this can cause major medication errors and compromise patient safety 💉 Never use a blunt, filter, or bent needle for direct patient injection 🚫 Never push into a line that isn't patent (shows signs of infiltration, or abnormal findings at the IV site) 🛡️ Never take shortcuts! Always keep patient safety the priority! Clinical Pocket Guide👉 https://nurseinthemaking.

“Questioning a healthcare provider… I’m too shy!” ... No, you’re ✨ADVOCATING!✨ → Providers see many patients and work with systems and order sets ALL day long for SO many patients. They’re human, too, so mistakes can be made. → As a nurse, it’s your responsibility to make sure an order is complete, appropriate, and makes SENSE. → You are often the last line of defense before a medication reaches the patient, so be sure that you’re not just going through the motions. 💬Drop your answer to the las
