Avoiding Dangerous Mix-ups with Insulin & Heparin (July 07)

[nurse2be20125266]

Verify Verify Verify....Know what the patient is being treated for. Maybe the FDA should consider labeling all Heparin/TPA in Red associated with Blood

One way not to make a mistake is to know why the patient is getting either the insulin or the heparin at that moment, what is the purpose. What are the results the doctor and you are looking for.

Is it possible for FDA to publish an educational video on how to do an independent check?

It will be very beneficial tool for training and education if it comes from FDA

Thanks
