This Wiley - Blackwell source of information, UCL Hospitals Injectable Medicines Administration Guide: Pharmacy Department, 3rd Edition, is developed by MedHand Mobile Libraries. Improve your performance with relevant, valid material which is accessed quickly and with minimal effort in the palm of your hand using MedHand’s patented technology.

The safe administration of injectable medicines is key to patient safety. The NPSA recognises the use of injectable medicines is a high risk activity and recommends written information about injectables to be available at the point of preparation.

The UCL Hospitals Injectable Medicines Administration Guide is a practical, accessible guide covering many important aspects of administering medicines by injection. It provides clear, concise information on the preparation and administration of over 245 injectable medicines for adults, paediatrics and neonates. It is an essential resource for nurses and other healthcare professionals: it provides the key information and advice needed for the safe and effective administration of injectable medicines.

The Guide’s introductory section provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of injectable therapy, including the risks and benefits of IV administration, infusion devices, and pharmaceutical aspects of injectable therapy.

For each drug the alphabetically tabulated monographs provide:

• A practical method of preparation and administration via the IV, IM and SC routes, with risk reduction in mind at every step
• Expert advice from the team of specialist pharmacists at UCLH to ensure safe and pragmatic use of each medicine
• Monitoring advice for the management of reactions that may occur during administration
• Y-site and syringe driver compatibility data
