The inadvertent intravenous administration of oral suspension which is rarely reported has contributed to potential patient harm. We received an incident report in a had liquid formulation intravenously. This been happening when prepared or dispensed parenteral syringe. Due the break-in mental concentration, medicine administered Some health professionals did not accept fact that Luer connectio...

The aim of this work was to perform an extended stability study for the analgesic containing fentanyl, clonidine and ropivacaine in physiological saline solution 0.9% at different infusion sites, such as bags, epidural sets syringes. assessed by HPLC system equipped with a photodiode array detector set 210 nm. separation conducted on C18 column maintained 40˚C using isocratic mobile phase consi...

The gliding characteristics were evaluated of 10-ml plastic syringes used to identify the extradural space by "loss of resistance" techniques. This was undertaken quantitatively, by measuring the force necessary to depress syringe plungers, and qualitatively, by examining travel characteristics in terms of the force applied, together with the rate and uniformity of plunger travel. An important ...

We evaluated the compatibility of several common plastics, commercially available plastic tubing and disposable syringes which might be useful in the construction of microfluidic platforms with respect to the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). A simple and inexpensive plastic test module was constructed in order to evaluate some of the construction plastics. We also investigated the effect of add...
