How to Administer IV Albumin from a Glass Bottle *LIVE DEMO*

[@macn6048]

This is amazing! As a new nurse, I know I've messed up priming the line a few times with albumin because i didn't truly know when i should've opened the vent! This video makes it so easy to understand the process. Thank you very much!

[@caringcasa]

That’s wonderful, thank you! Congrats I know the first year as a new nurse can be tough but you really learn A LOT as a bedside nurse. Welcome to Caring Casa!!!! 🤍🤍🤍

@@caringcasa does the vent stay open for the duration of the infusion or just for priming the line?

When spiking subsequent vials do you need to reclose the vent?

Thank you for this video. I needed this review.

[@caringcasa]

Awesome, happy to help!!! Appreciate you!!!! 🤍🤍🤍

[@MrBolter17]

Few questions. Are you using a primary line tube for albumin? Also how fast would you typically run the albumin?

[@caringcasa]

Hi Diego, Yes I use a primary line Infusion can be 60 min also depends on underlying medical factors assuming no heart conditions. The ordering provider will specify Infusion rate on order. Hope this helps! 😀

I used to clean the vial rubber stopper with alcohol swab even though i know it's sterile

[@noorr2573]

One thing I would add to this video is make sure that your patient has a blood product consent since albumin is a blood product! :)

[@caringcasa]

Hi!!! Yes, absolutely great reminder!!! Forgot to mention, thank you!!! 🤍🤍🤍

[@نورعلي-ي6ع4و]

But doesn’t albumin need to be covered from light?

[@derek9153]

Other glass bottle derived medications that I have given many times are Alteplase (Tissue plasminogen activator) and Propofol.

Great video as a lpn new to hospital environment when told to hang it for my patient I came right to you tube first before I said I didn’t know how to do it lol. Thank you so much because I definitely primed the wrong way the first time

[@caringcasa]

So glad you found my channel @caringcasa thank you for watching!!!

Is it normal to get an on and off sickness after having an Albumin transfusion because my grandfather after taking it gets sick at least twice a day which lasted for maybe an hour or two, he's taken his last transfusion yesterday and he never gets sick before but started getting sick since his last transfusion.

Can you have English sub titles in your videos as the accent is difficult to pick at some places.
