DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Important Administration Instructions
PLASMA-LYTE A Injection pH 7.4 (Multiple Electrolytes Injection, Type 1, USP) is intended for intravenous administration using sterile equipment.
Do not connect flexible plastic containers in series in order to avoid air embolism due to possible residual air contained in the primary container.
Set the vent to the closed position on a vented intravenous administration set to prevent air embolism.
Use a dedicated line without any connections to avoid air embolism.
Do not pressurize intravenous solutions contained in flexible plastic containers to increase flow rates in order to avoid air embolism due to incomplete evacuation of residual air in the container.
Prior to infusion, visually inspect the solution for particulate matter and discoloration. The solution should be clear and there should be no precipitates. Do not administer unless solution is clear, and container is undamaged.
PLASMA-LYTE A Injection pH 7.4 (Multiple Electrolytes Injection, Type 1, USP) is compatible with blood or blood components. It may be administered prior to or following the infusion of blood through the same administration set (i.e., as a priming solution), added to or infused concurrently with blood components, or used as a diluent in the transfusion of packed erythrocytes. PLASMA-LYTE A Injection and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP are equally compatible with blood or blood components.
Dosing Information
The choice of product, dosage, volume, rate, and duration of administration is dependent upon the age, weight and clinical condition of the patient and concomitant therapy, and administration should be determined by a physician experienced in intravenous fluid therapy.
