Site
3 Sites, 6 Options
Proximal Humerus
Preferred site for adults
Optimal site for high flow and quick drug uptake
Awake, responsive patients
Less painful
Proximal Tibia
Unresponsive
Unfamiliarity with other
sites
Unable to landmark other
sites
Site selection
Dependent upon:
No previous IO in 48 hours
Absence of contraindications
Distal Tibia
Larger patient
Unable to access other sites

Needle | Check
After insertion, check…
Firmly seated needle
Flash of blood
No leaking around site
No sign of extravasation

Flush | Flow
Maintain flow
approx 1/3 arterial pressure
Medullary space pressure can stop flow
Infusions should be pressurised for
optimal flow

not been confirmed or published

Administration
Consider
Local protocols
Local IO anaesthesia must be
administered very slowly until
the desired anaesthetic effect
is achieved
Cardiac lidocaine for patients
responsive to pain. (1)
Physician must decide the
appropriate anaesthetic &
dose.
Give prior to IO flush. (1)
Repeat doses may be needed
for continued local
anaesthesia. (1)
T-522, Rev A
Recommendations by
Dr. Hixson on next slide.
Comfort | Suggested analgesia administration
Responsive to pain?
Flush the IO needle with up to 10 ml
sodium chloride 0.9% over 5 seconds
Yes
Exclude contra-indications to cardiac
lidocaine
Inject or infuse fluids and medication
under pressure as required (2)
Monitor patient clinically. Consider
additional monitoring as indicated
If discomfort reoccurs
Administer initial (higher) dose of IO
lidocaine over 1 to 2 minutes (1)
Consider repeating the subsequent (lower) dose of IO
lidocaine at a maximum frequency of once every 45 min
Flush the IO needle with up to 10 ml
sodium chloride 0.9% over 5 seconds (2)
Administer subsequent (lower) dose
of IO lidocaine over 30 seconds (1)
Inject or infuse fluids and medication
under pressure as required (2)

Cleaning and Disinfecting
• Wipe clean with moistened cloth
• Spray with anti-microbial solution
• Momentarily depress trigger several times during cleaning
• Clean around drive shaft with cotton applicator – check to
ensure nothing has attached to the magnetic tip
• Wipe dry
• Inspect driver and return to case or replace trigger guard
Do Not Submerge driver at any time
