NURSING PROCESS
OVERVIEW
ASSESSMENT
Because children vary so greatly in size and
individual need, medication administration
to children begins w/ assessment of the
childs height and weight so that a correct
dose of medicine can be calculated based
on the childs development age.
Important to determine the childs ability to
swallow oral medicine or plan the best site
for an intramuscular or intravenous
injection.

ADMINISTERING AN
INTRAOSSEOUS INFUSION
Infusion of fluid into the bone marrow cavity of a long bone, usually
the distal or proximal tibia, the distal femur, or the iliac crest
The following are steps used to initiate an intraosseous infusion:
1. The skin over the chosen site is clean.
2. A small incision is made into the skin with a scalpel blade.
3. A large hypodermic or bone marrow needle is inserted through
the incision into the cavity of the bone.
4. To ensure that the needle tip has reached the bone marrow
cavity.
5. If bone marrow is obtained, the syringe is removed and IV tubing.
6. a dressing with additional iodine is then applied over the needle
site.
7. a restraint is applied to the leg to help the child hold the leg still.
