PROCEDURE II: BLOOD TRANSFUSION
STEPS CD ID REMARKS1. Verify doctor’s order 2. Explain the procedure to patient/SO. Secure informed
consent3. Assess patient’s condition, patency of IV site and
infusing IV solution (ongoing IV fluids should be compatible for blood transfusion). If no IV access, start a peripheral IV line according to hospital policy.
4. Request blood and blood component from blood bank to include blood typing and crossmatching
5. Obtain blood from blood bank once available6. Warm blood at room temperature by using blood
warmer or simply wrap blood bag in towel7. Countercheck the compatible blood to be transfused.
Double/triple check crossmatching results, serial number, expiration date and type of blood component with another colleague.
8. Monitor patient’s VS and assess for any untoward s/s9. Administer premedications as ordered, usually 30
minutes before transfusion.10. Wash hands before and after procedure11. Prepare materials to be used (On IV tray, BT set,

14. Close IV fluid of PNSS or KVO (based on doctor’s order) while transfusion is going on.
15. Regulate transfusion to 20 gtts/min for 15 minutes, observe patient for any untoward s/s, then regulate as ordered.
16. Continue monitoring patient for any reactions and check VS from time to time, usually every 30 minutes
17. Swirl the bag once in awhile to mix the solid and liquid elements. Note: one blood set should be used for one or two
STEPS CD ID REMARKSunits of blood to prevent sluggish transfusion rate.
18. If blood is consumed, close roller clamp of BT setthen disconnect from Y-port, flush tubing with IV fluids and regulate flow as ordered.
19. Continue to observe patient for any delayed reaction. Monitor VS after transfusion.
20. Discard blood bag and other used devices according to hospital policy
21. Carry out post BT orders and remind doctor about administration of Ca Gluconate if patient has received four (4) or more units of blood.
22. Document accordingly

PROCEDURE III – ADMINISTERING OF DRUGS: IV PUSH / DRUG INCORPORATION INTO IVF BOTTLE/DRUG INCORPORATION INTO SOLUSET
STEPS CD ID REMARKS
A. IV PUSH:1. Countercheck medication card against the
written doctor’s order2. Observe “10 Rights” when preparing and
administering medications3. Explain procedure to patient/SO4. Assess patient for any untoward s/s, check IV
site for any complications, check for skin test result of drug for IV push
5. Wash hands before and after procedure6. Prepare the necessary materials to be used (on
IV injection tray-right drug, right diluents, syringes, needles, cotton balls soaked in alcohol in closed container)
7. Disinfect injection port of the diluents (if in vial)8. Aspirate right amount of diluent and dilute the
drug (if drug needs to be diluted) and mix gently9. Aspirate the right drug dose, disinfect the Y-
injection port of the IV tubing, pierce through the bull’s eyed rubber port
10. Kink the tubing from the bottle, push IV drug slowly as ordered or as per manufacturer’s instructions. Observe precautionary measures during drug administration
11. Release the tubing from the bottle, do not remove syringe from injection port
12. Kink the tubing from the patient and aspirate 1-2 cc of IV fluid from the bottle and release the tubing.
13. Kink the tubing from the bottle and flush IV tubing going to the patient to be sure that drug is completely administered before removing the syringe from injection port.
14. Regulate rate of IV fluid infusion as ordered (if needed)
15. Reassure patient and observe for signs and symptoms of adverse drug reaction, if any.
STEPS CD ID REMARKS
16. Discard sharps and wastes according to hospital policy
17. Document accordingly
(If the patient has a Heparin –lock device (Heplock)1. Do steps 1-52. Prepare all needed materials (on IV injection
tray- Heparin solution, Normal Saline diluents, 3 pcs. 2.5cc syringe, 1 pc. tuberculin syringe, cotton balls soaked in alcohol in closed container)
3. Prepare medication to be administered and draw it up into a syringe. (do steps 7 and 8)
4. Fill a tuberculin syringe with Heparin solution. (Heparin solution is usually prepared with 0.1cc Heparin plus 0.9cc Normal Saline/Isotonic solution)
5. Fill the two other 2.5cc syringes with Normal Saline, 1cc each
6. Swab injection port with alcohol and insert saline syringe into port
7. Pull back on-syringe plunger and observe for any blood into the syringe, flush system
Rationale: the presence of blood indicates that needle/cannula was placed into the vein and not into surrounding tissues.
8. Remove saline syringe and insert medication syringe into the port. Inject medication into the vein slowly
9. Observe patient for any adverse reaction10. Remove the medication syringe and insert
another saline syringe into the port, flush the system to ensure complete administration of medication
11. Remove saline syringe and insert the Heparin syringe into the port. Inject the Heparin to fill the catheter / needle lumen.
Rationale: The Heparin should prevent the formation of clot in the catheter
12. Do steps 15 -17

separate IV solution compatible with drug dilution, drug to be incorporated in vial or ampule, solu-set, needle, syringe, plaster, cotton balls soaked in alcohol in covered container)
Note: Solu-set is to be consumed in 6-8 hours, confirm with doctor if IV fluid is to be used solely for drug administration and keep the whole set sterile for succeeding doses.
(Spike solu-set to new IVF container, prime the tubing, place an appropriate needle to distal end of tubing, and connect to
STEPS CD ID REMARKSthe IV main line through the Y-injection port, secure with tape)
7. Aspirate prepared right drug with correct dose8. Add desired IVF diluents into solu-set by opening the
clamp from the bottle then close the clamp after9. Disinfect rubber injection port of the soluset and
incorporate the drug. Mix gently10. Open the clamp of the airway at the soluset and
