Case Study Avoiding Liability   John is a licensed pharmacy technician with compounding expertise for both sterile and nonsterile products. The manager of the hospital pharmacy department, Mr. Brown, who is John’s boss, feels that the commercial metronidazole 500 mg injection they buy is consuming 25% of the drug budget, and he would like this cost to be reduced.

NURSING CORRECT ANSWERS  .  Mr. Jackson was hospitalized today for heart failure. The physician orders a loading dose of digoxin 0.75 mg to be given intravenously. The digoxin is available in a solution of 0.5 mg/mL. (Learning Objectives 2, 4, 6) 1. How many milliliters should the nurse prepare? 2. What should the nurse do before administering the IV dose? 3. If digoxin toxicity develops, what signs or symptoms might Mr. Jackson have? 4. How often should Mr. Jackson be monitored for signs of digoxin toxicity? 5. What conditions might increase Mr. Jackson’s likelihood of exhibiting digoxin toxicity?.

Dosage calculation: The nurse is caring for a newborn who has symptoms of congestive heart failure and is being treated with Digoxin. The child weighs 6.5 lb.

How many kilograms (kg) does the child weigh?   c. What is the lowest dose of Digoxin (in mcg) that this child could be given in a 24-hour time period?   d. What is the highest dose of Digoxin (in mcg) that this child could be given in a 24-hour time period?   e. How many doses will the child receive in a day?

Case Study Four   Case Study Assessing Dose Accuracy and Safety and Label Clarity   The Pharmacy Department of Miracle Hospital has ordered premixed solutions of cyclophosphamide 200 mg per 500 mL of NaCl 0.9%w/v injection from a specialty pharmacy compounding various parenteral products. The commercial 500 mL NS solution PVC bag has an overfill. The specialty pharmacy prepared the cyclophosphamide admixture by adding 10 mL of a reconstituted solution of 20 mg/mL cyclophosphamide to the 500 mL of NaCl 0.9%w/v PVC bag and labelled the IV admixture as 200 mg of cyclophosphamide per 500 mL. What is the concentration per millilitre of the cyclophosphamide admixture? (Napra 3.1)         What volume of this admixture would you draw-up in a syringe to deliver a 40 mg dose? (Napra 3.1)         What potential error could result if the premixed cytotoxic admixture is used?
