We have three Accudose Med Stations in 3700 and one in 3800-N. The Accudose houses all narcotic medications and STAT medications. Please ask one of the supervisors to create a temporary ID and password for you that will last a twelve hour shift. Always perform independent double checks on any medications/ivs that require bedside mixing and high alert medications. Any Blood Products are always checked through independent double checks by the patient s bedside. PLEASE call a team leader to double check blood. BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING:
4 Blood glucose test is performed 1-3 hours after the main IV fluid and/ or IV glucose concentration is changed. Please notify the infant s doctor for blood glucose results less than 45 mg/dl and for blood glucose results greater than 150 mg/dl. Recheck blood sugar every 30 mins (or otherwise indicated by the physician) until sugar is within normal range. IVs / PICC LINE: IV sites are monitored and documented hourly for signs of infiltration. Pay attention to the actual volume reading on the Braun pump, space pump, or medfusion pump to determine how much has infused over the previous hour. Pull through all IV fluid totals on LLAP every hour. IV + PO = ml/hr means that the IV rate per hour and the amount of the infant ate (amount of feeding % frequency of feeding) should equal the amount of the ml/hr ordered. Therefore, you need to increase or decrease your IV rate based on how much the infant ate for that feeding. PICC (Percutaneous Intravenous Central Catheter) line is maintained by the NICU nurse. Blood is never infused via these lines. Blood is never drawn out of these lines. If you note a problem with a PICC line, please inform a team leader or PICC Nurse immediately. ARTERIAL lines are maintained by the NICU nurse. If you have questions or note a problem with an arterial line, please inform a team leader or an Arterial Line Nurse immediately. PHYSICIAN ORDERS: The nurses are responsible for taking off and carrying out all orders. Please always double check orders with your buddy or a team leader. HELPFUL INFORMATIONS: Bag and Mask- Must have access to a bag and mask of appropriate size at each patient bedside. ID Bands- All infants must have an ID band on an extremity.

Temperature Control-The normal temperature range for our infants is 36.5 C 37.0 C. Please report any variation from normal range to the team leader. o Isolettes are required for infants weighing less than 1800 grams. Vital Signs- Routine vital signs are every 2 hours for NPO infants. Infants with routine feedings such as every 3 hours have vitals done prior to each feeding. Infants are to remain on the cardiorespiratory monitors at all times with alarms set and in the on position. Blood pressures are done at least every AM or more frequently if indicated on the plan of care. Infants on pulse oximeters have their saturation documented every hour and whenever there is a deviation from the normal range. The normal vital sign range are as follows: o Heart Rate: bpm (Term infants), and bpm (Preterm infants) o Respiration: o Temperature: 36.5 C C o Blood Pressure: S (40 65), D (20 40), Mean (28 50) o O2 Saturation: % for spontaneous room air infants.
