| '''GRACE ICU'''
| | [[Category:Legacy Pharmacy]] |
| * I have a couple of things that I would like to get clarified.
| |
| 1. '''Imipenem''' is listed on the pharmacy list of drugs. I have not seen this used in a long time but they are using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meropenem meropenem]. I gather that I should be capturing '''meropenem''', ''is this correct''?
| |
| | |
| 2. Second, I was going over things with Jan Kothuber (OAK ICU, casual GRA) because she is going to help Chris Scoville (GRA Casual)cover for me while I am on vacation and an interesting discovery was made.
| |
| * Jan was orientated to '''count bags''' signed for on the medication sheet when it comes to '''inotropes''' and to '''calculate the amount of drug used that way regardless if the entire bag was used''' before hanging another or when it was discontinued.
| |
| * I was orientated to '''add the amount of the drug used''' indicated on the ''in and out sheet'' and '''calculate how much of the drug was actually used''' that way. One is easier than the other but one is more accurate than the other.
| |
| * '''Can you clarify which way you would like it to be done'''?
| |
| Thanks, Mary Lou (GRACE ICU)

| '''VIC ICU'''
| |
| * I just received a phonecall from Jan Kothuber (OAK ICU)about the IV drug calculations.
| |
| * I know I am on holidays but I just want to clarify what we have been doing at the VIC since we started data collecting. Norine does it the exact same way.
| |
| 1. When an IV dug is mixed in a sage, or drip, ou use a vial, let's say amiodorone 300 to add to the bag. We would calcualte that as 1 dose for the one day (if they only hung one bag) If there were consecutive bags it would be 2 or 3 or however many bags over however many days. We were told in orientation it was was cost measures. So it didn't matter how much of the bag was used up , we still had used up the vial, it can't be used for anyone else............
| |
| *It's easier to figure out oral meds in a more exact mgs. The only exception was '''propofol''' where we had to figure out the '''exact amount''' of mgs.
| |
| *Anyway, this is what I had told Jan during her orientation.
| |
| So just so you exactly how you told us a long, long, long time ago.

| |
| I agree with the exception of the propofol when there is an infusion, bottles of 1000 mg are hung counted as one no matter how much is used as it was not reusable-exception are boluses (which we can choose in the dropdown menu) -I am looking at it right now...........

| '''CON ICU'''
| |
| *I was trained to count bags, so that is what I have been doing here....exactly what Vic is doing. Re: meropenem...I have never counted this in the pharmacy section.

| '''STB ICU'''
| |
| *At St. Boniface we count the number of bags/bottles used and not the amount in the bag used, as was previously pointed out by others, the unused portion is thrown away, and the cost is what is being calculated. That's how we do it here.[[User:DFriesen|DFriesen]] 15:57, 15 July 2008 (CDT) & Kym Wiebe

| '''GRA ICU'''
| |
| *Hi Trish - I have access to it and have read the issue about syringe use - I'm in Mary-Lou's camp - counting mg's then converting into a syringe count of how much the patient actually received - I've been doing that for years. Christine Scoville - GRA ICU casual.
