Cabinet


bright and ventilative, avoiding direct shine and keep
clean, tidy and dry.
Placement of medications



Store separately according to their different routes
(oral, injection, or topical), toxicity or untoxicity
Expensive drugs, narcotics and virulent toxicants
must be taken charge of by a special nurse who
should lock the cabinet and have the key always with
her.
On every shift

Label the container of medications
clearly





blue strip labels oral medications,
Red strip labels external medications,
and black strip labels virulent toxicants.
Label the container with name, concentration
and dose of drugs
If the labels are soiled or illegible, discontinue
using the medications


Check the medications carefully
Store the medications properly
according to their different nature.
 Medications which tend to volatilize,
deliquesce, or effloresce should be kept
in airtight bottles, e.g., ethanol, iodine,
sugar-coat tablets.

Medications that will be oxidized if
exposed to air and be denatured if
exposed to light should be kept in
airtight colored bottles. Cover the
container with shade paper box if
necessary and store it in the shady and
cool area, e.g., Vitamine C 氨茶碱 盐酸
肾上腺素

Biologic products and antibiotics that will
be destroyed and decomposed if
exposed to heat should be kept in the
dry, and shady and cool area (about
20℃) or in refrigerator (about 2～10℃)
according to their natures and
requirements of storage, e.g., an
antitoxic serum, vaccine, placental
globin, penicillin skin test solution.
Medications should be used designedly
according to valid periods in case of
invalidation, e.g., antibiotics and insulin.
 Store the inflammable and explosive
medications in airtight bottle and place
in the shady and cool area separately
and keep them away from fire and
electric appliances.

different forms of medication . Fetching meds from bottles.

2．Offer medications and warm water
3. Assist clients with critical illness or pediatric clients. For NG,
grind meds.
4．Teach clients the effects and cautions of meds
4．Clean the cup
See disk
Guidelines followed when
administering oral medications



1.Always administer a drug with warm boiled
water of 40~60℃ instead of with tea.
2.Medications that erode teeth such as acid
and chalybeate should be sucked with a
sucker and then rinse to protect teeth.
3.Never chew, crush or break sustained
release tablets, enteric-coated tablets and
capsules


4.Place lozenges under the tongue or
between buccal membrane and teeth
dissolved slowly rather than allow clients to
chew or swallow.
5.Generally, stomachic medications are
appropriately taken before meal, while those
irritating gastric membrane taken after meal.
Hypnotics is properly taken before sleep and
parasiticides taken in limosis or half limosis.


6.Antibiotics and sulfonamide should
be taken at certain interval to ensure
effective drug blood concentration.
7.Avoid giving fluids immediately after
a client swallows medication such as
syrup that exerts local medicating
effects on the oral mucosa


8. Allow the client to drink more water after
sulfonamide is taken to prevent the crystal
which the drug produces when excreted
through kidney with the less urine volume to
block the nephridium.
9. Observe the heart rate and rhythm closely
when cardiotonic is taken. If the heart rate is
lower than 60 times per minute or arrhythmia
occurs, discontinue to use the drug and
inform the physicist.

Cautions!
1．Follow the three checks and seven

principles strictly
2．Clinical guidelines forIrritating
vein selection
drugs is
injected slowly
3. Control the speed of injection according
to age of client and nature of medication
4.Bis injectional method
Clinical guidelines for vein selection



Select a vein with large diameter,
straightness, good elasticity ,and away from
joint and vein valve
Avoid veins with high move, infection caused
by previous use ,such as phlebitis,
infiltration, or sclerosis
Use distal portion of vein first, then proximal
portion gradually for patients with long term
injection
Bis injectional method


When injecting irritating medication,
normal saline should be used to inject
at first to test the needle is in the vein.
Then change the syringe with
medication for injection to prevent
medication irritating tissue once the
insertion fails
Factors contributing to failing to inject
shallow：if inject medication
turgidity and pain
No blood return
Blood return
continue
inserting the needle
Bevel sticks to the vessel wall
deep：if inject medication
no turgidity but pain
No blood return
Blood return
withdraw the needle, repeat the
procedure
good
The key to venipuncture for special
clients


1．Obese patients

Vein is deep but stable

palate the vein clearly, sterilize the index finger of
nondominant hand, increase angle degree of
venipuncture( 30°~ 40°)，insert the needle from the site
above the vein
2．Aged patients

vein is superficial and fragile but unstable(easily moved)

so it is essential to anchor the vein from the distal and
proximal portions before venipuncture

3.Severely dehydrated patients



Vein may collapse
Applying warm compresses and light tapping
and massage over the vein may foster
venous dilation well
4.Patients with edema


Vein may be seen unclearly
Massage skin above tended vein may expose
the vein

Before collecting blood sample, the
nurse should aspirate 0.5ml of heparin
(1:500), and spread it evenly on the
inside wall of barrel, then eject residual
solution, to prevent blood agglutination
collect blood sample


Blood volume: 0.1~1ml
If blood sample is used for Arterial Blood
Gases (ABGs), as soon as the needle is
withdrawn, it should be inserted into a cork
immediately. Roll the syringe in palms.

ultrasonic nebulization


Ultrasonic nebulization creates aerosol
spray or mist of medication through
high frequency vibration of ultrasonic
production film（超声发生器薄膜，透生
膜）.
This equipment also can regulate the
amount of spray and warm the
medication solution.

What is anaphylactic reaction
to medication?
What is anaphylactic test of
medication?
Characteristics of Anaphylactic
Reaction to Medication
allergy
An pathological immune reaction
Anaphylaxis does not usually happen to
patients who take the medication for the
first time，but not absolutely.
sensitized course
non typical exposure、cross
reaction(隐性致敏、交叉反应)
Characteristics
Anaphylaxis only happens to a few
persons with allergic habitus, with no
relation to dosage.
The different medications with similar
chemical structure may lead to
full or part cross reactions.
过敏反应的特点

是一种病理性的免疫应答。

通常不发生在首次用药，必须有致敏过程；但不
是绝对的，隐性致敏或交叉反应。

只发生在少数人,是对某些药物“质”的过敏,而
不是“量”的中毒。

具有相同化学结构的药物之间会发生完全或部分
交叉反应
Medications prone to provoke
anaphylaxis:




Antibiotics : penicillin streptomycin
cephalothin
Biological products : TAT
Narcotics: procaine
Contrast medium: Iodide
Safely and correctly administering
meds
• Inquire
• medication history
• Allergic history
• Family allergic history
（用药史、过敏史、家族史）
• Anaphylactic test
before
administeri
ng meds
Anaphylactic test?
•It is a clinical method to monitor whether the
patients get immediate or delayed
anaphylaxis after the small dosage
medication came into the body through
some approaches .
•skin test: intradermal injection
scratch test(划痕试验)
•conjunctiva method（眼结膜试验法）
•intravenous injection
Skin test can detect the
anaphylaxis,but sometimes the result is
false negative.Why:
insufficient dosage
Have taken anti-allergic
medication before the test.

Cautions of penicillin
administration

Inquire the patient’s medication history,allergic history and
family allergic history before test.
（皮试前应询问用药史、过敏史家族过敏史。）
Normal/isotonic saline is always used as menstruum to
dissolve and dilute penicillin.
（配制试验液的溶媒多采用生理盐水,不用注射用水。）
 Menstruum, syringe and needle used in dilute penicillin is
banned to use in other medications.
（配制试验液的溶媒、注射器、针头不宜交叉使用。）

Dispense allergic test reagent when used.The dosage and
concentration of reagent is accurate.
（试验液的浓度、剂量应准确，且应现用现配。）
 Anti－histamine medications is banned in 24h before test
in case of false negative .
（皮试前24h禁用抗组织胺类药物，以免影响皮试反应结果）
 Be ready for aids before,and keep epinephrine on hand .
(过敏试验前应准备好抢救物品，以备急救。)

Keep close watch on the patient.
(在进行皮内试验时应严密观察过敏反应，首次注射青霉素
者需观察30min后再离开。)
 If positive,penicillin should be banned,and the nurse
should report to the doctor.Record penicillin positive
result on the doctor’s order sheet,medical record，
injection card and bedside card,and inform the patient
and his family of the result.
（阳性结果者不用青霉素，并及时告诉医生，将阳性结果标
识在医嘱单、病历、注射卡、床头卡上。并告知病人及家
属。）


If you doubt false positive，control experiment is
made to exclude allergy induced by disinfector.
（疑假阳性反应做对照试验，以排除消毒剂的影响）

TAT脱敏注射

适用对象：

TAT是一种特异性抗体，没有可以代替的药物，皮试
结果即使阳性，仍需考虑使用。

定义：分次小剂量注射

机理

逐渐中和IgE。直至脱敏。

暂时，会重建致敏状态：故日后如再用TAT还须重做
