What are the Complications of Rapid Medication Delivery?
While rapid medication delivery can be life-saving, it is not without risks. Potential complications include:
Infiltration and Extravasation: Improper IV placement can lead to medication leakage into surrounding tissues, causing damage. Speed Shock: Rapid administration of certain drugs can lead to toxic levels in the bloodstream, causing adverse reactions. Infection: Improper aseptic techniques can introduce pathogens, leading to infections. Allergic Reactions: Rapid introduction of a new medication can trigger immediate allergic responses.
