Summary: IV (intravenous) line placement is one of the basic nurse skills. It is a requisite action in CPR, because all drugs are applied intravenously. In addition to IV line, there are alternative methods for drug administration in vitally endangered patients, such as endotracheal (ET) and intraosal (IO) method. The aim of this work is to signify the importance and benefit of early placement of IV line in prehospital treatment of patients for timely start of emergency treatment in the field. Moreover, we want to discuss alternative methods for drug administration in critical care. In case of cardiovascular collapse, the choice of a method for drug administration is important as much as drug choice itself. Working in the Emergency Department is specific, and permanent education, training and composure of the staff are essential prerequisites for fast and adequate reaction in critical moments. Key words: resuscitation, IV line, alternative Napomena: kompletan tekst rada na srpskom jeziku Note: full text in Serbian |
