Necessary elements include appropriate level of care, monitoring, and physicochemical considerations. There are many medications given intravenously both in inpatient settings, procedural areas, or ambulatory care settings. The purpose of this guideline is to provide guidance for the administration of intravenous medications to pediatric patients across these care settings. The medications in this guideline were chosen based on their inclusion in the UWHC medication formulary and the units were administration is appropriate. These administration guidelines are not absolute; administration of intravenous medications should be tailored to fit the therapeutic needs of a pediatric patient as appropriate.

Intended Users: Physicians, advanced practice providers, pharmacists, and nurses Objective: To provide guidelines and monitoring parameters for the intravenous administration of UWHC formulary medications to pediatric patient. Target Population: Pediatric patients requiring intravenous medications. Interventions and Practices Considered: • Physiochemical properties of intravenous medications • Appropriate administration technique • Safe and effective dosing and administration rates • Key monitoring parameters for intravenous medications Major Outcomes Considered: • Safe and standardized administration of intravenous medications to prevent patient harm. Methodology Methods Used to Collect/Select the Evidence Electronic database searches, literature review,manufacturer labeling and tertiary care references were used to collect evidence for review. Methods Used to Formulate the Recommendations Available evidence from the literature, manufacturer labeling and tertiary references was combined to formulate recommendations. Clinical expert consensus was utilized to formulate specific recommendations and levels of care for administration. Copyright © 2021 University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics Authority.

  • Identification Ofa D1 Dopamine Receptor, Not Linked To
    Br. J. Pharmacol. (1991), 103, 1928-1934 11--" Macmillan Press Ltd, 1991 Identification of a D1 dopamine receptor, not linked to adenylate cyclase, on lactotroph cells 'Danny F. Schoors, *Georges P. Vauquelin, *Hilde De Vos, fGerda Smets, Brigitte Velkeniers, Luc Vanhaelst & Alain G. Dupont Department of Pharmacology, Medical School, Vrije Universiteit Brussel (V.U.B.), Laarbeeklaan 103, B-1090, Brussels, Belgium; *Protein Chemistry Laboratory, Instituut voor Moleculaire Biologie, V.U.B., Paardenstraat 65, St-Genesius-Rode, Belgium and tDepartment of Experimental Pathology, Medical School, V.U.B., Laarbeeklaan 103, B-1090, Brussels, Belgium 1 We studied the lactotroph cells of the rat by both in vivo and in vitro pharmacological techniques for the presence of D1-receptors. Both approaches revealed the presence of a D2-receptor, stimulated by quinpirole (resulting in an inhibition of prolactin secretion) and blocked by domperidone. 2 Administration of fenoldopam, the most selective Dl-receptor agonist currently available, resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of prolactin secretion in vivo (after pretreatment with a-methyl-p-tyrosine) and in vitro (cultured pituitary cells). This increase was dose-dependently blocked by the selective D1-receptor antagonist, SCH 23390, and although the effect of fenoldopam was less than that obtained by D2-receptor stimulation, these data suggest that a D,-receptor also controls prolactin secretion. 3 In order to detect the location of these dopamine receptors, autoradiographic studies were performed by use of [3H]-SCH 23390 and [3H]-spiperone as markers for D1- and D2-receptors, respectively. Specific binding sites for [3H]-SCH 23390 were demonstrated. Fenoldopam dose-dependently reduced [3H]-SCH 23390 binding, but had no effect on [3H]-spiperone binding.
