AbstractMedication errors are commonly encountered in hospital setting. Intravenous medications pose particular risks because of their greater complexity and the multiple steps required in their preparation, administration and monitoring. We aimed to determine the rate of errors during preparation and administration phase of intravenous medications and the correlation of these errors with the d...

Background: Recent reports demonstrated that intravenous route as a minimally invasive method, similar to direct injection, is suitable for bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) transplantation. In this study, we made a comparison of intraspinal and intravenous route of BMSC administration to repair injured spinal cord tissue. Methods: Six groups of adult female rats were used in this study. Laminect...

It has recently been reported that bisphosphonates are the most common treatment for osteoporotic patients. However, they are many problems, including poor bioavailability and adherence, as well as adverse drug reactions. Therefore, intravenous administration of bisphosphonates has been developed to resolve these problems. In Japan today, alendronate and ibandronate have been approved for intra...

The blood biochemical parameters were investigated in a yak (Bos grunniens L) after intravenous administration of 5 mg/kg enrofloxacin. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein daily for 5 days after the drug administration. Heparinized bloods were collected for mean corpuscular volume (MCV), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), hemoglubin (Hb) estimation and...

Background: Intraosseous injection is a way to administration of drugs. Objective: The clinical comparison of intraosseous and intravenous injection of Thiopental-Na. Methods: First all birds (Twenty six healthy pigeons) were split out into two groups randomly. Group A received 20 mg kg-1 Thiopental-Na by intraosseous rou...

Pharmacokinetics of cefepime was studied after single dose intravenous administration at the dose rate of 5 mg/kg body weight in calves. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein at predetermined time intervals before and after drug administration. Serum was harvested and analysed for cefepime concentration by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Following intravenous...

Pharmacokinetics of intravenous and oral pulsed high-dose dexamethasone were studied in four patients with pemphigus vulgaris. Doses for dexamethasone were varied from 100 to 300 mg. Serum concentrations were measured by high-performance liquid chromatographic procedure with diode assay detection. Bioavailability was assessed by comparing the areas under the serum concentration-time curves foll...
