Sammanfattning

When dealing with more drugs than available lumens, intravenous medications need to be co-administered in the same catheter. This type of scenario may induce therapeutic risks, such as catheter occlusion, changes in drug effect or embolization of precipitated particles. Various sources are available to provide information on compatibilities of intravenous medications. When using these sources, the applicability of the information must be assessed, comparing concentrations, diluents used and other pharmaceutical aspects. For the last three years, a group of pharmacists at Sahlgrenska University Hospital has worked on a project collecting and validating compatibility data for intravenous medications. In the future, this data will be available to more hospitals in Sweden.
