Steri-Tamp ST5112 Tamper-Proof Blue Seals are specially designed seals used to secure IV bags during medical procedures. These seals are made of high-quality materials and are designed to fit securely around the IV bag tubing or port to prevent any tampering. The tamper-proof design of the seals ensures the integrity of the IV bag and its contents, providing an additional layer of protection against contamination.

The blue color of the seals makes it easy to visually identify which bags have been properly sealed for use. These seals can also help healthcare providers keep track of the status of different IV bags, making it easier to monitor patient treatments. They are commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings to ensure the safety and security of IV bags during use.

Steri-Tamp are safe, sterile, tamper-evident seals for admixture ports on IV bags, bottles, and vials. These seals protect against contamination and accidental double dosing and alert the staff when a drug is added. The foil outer layer provides visible evidence of a needle puncture. Removing the Steri-Tamp® outer layer leaves a printed “OPENED” warning and cannot be reapplied.

Some additional features of Steri-Tamp ST5112 Tamper-Proof Blue Seals include:

  • Latex-free and non-toxic materials, making them safe for use on all patients
  • Universal fit for most standard IV bags and ports
  • Durable and easy to apply and remove
  • Single-use, disposable design to prevent cross-contamination between patients
  • Reduces the risk of accidental spills and leaks during transport or handling of IV bags
  • Tamper-evident design that shows visible signs of tampering if the seal has been broken or removed

In summary, Steri-Tamp ST5112 Tamper-Proof Blue Seals are an essential tool in ensuring the safety and proper use of IV bags in medical settings. Their tamper-proof design, easy application, and visibility make them a reliable choice for healthcare professionals.

FAQs about Dextrose IV Bags
  • What is Dextrose in an IV Bag?

    Dextrose is a medically purified form of glucose (a natural sugar), commonly used in IV infusions to quickly restore blood sugar levels, provide necessary calories, and rehydrate patients. In an IV bag, dextrose is diluted with sterile water, available in various concentrations (5%, 10%, 50%), and safely delivered directly into the bloodstream for immediate effect.

  • Can dextrose 10% be given peripherally?

    Yes, dextrose 10% can be administered through a peripheral IV line for short-term use. However, higher concentrations could require central venous access due to the risk of vein irritation.

  • Can a pregnant woman take dextrose water?

    Dextrose water IV is often used safely in pregnancy, particularly in cases of dehydration or during labor, but always under a doctor’s supervision to prevent complications like fluid overload or blood sugar disturbances.

  • Can you give normal saline and dextrose together?

    Absolutely. Normal saline and dextrose IV fluids can be administered sequentially or simultaneously (as in Dextrose Normal Saline – DNS solution) to maintain electrolyte and glucose balance during treatment.

  • What IV fluid is best for dehydration?

    For moderate dehydration, normal saline or dextrose saline (DNS) are typically recommended. For hypoglycemia or energy needs, dextrose solution provides fast metabolic benefits.

  • Is dextrose and saline the same thing?

    No. Dextrose IV delivers glucose for cellular energy, while saline restores electrolytes and water balance. Combined, they address both needs in one infusion (as in DNS bags).

  • How fast to push IV dextrose?

    The IV dextrose drip rate depends on the patient’s condition and concentration used. For emergency hypoglycemia, dextrose 50% may be given in a slow IV push (over 2-5 minutes). Lower concentrations (e.g., D5W) are infused at standard maintenance rates.

  • What are the side effects of dextrose IV?

    Potential side effects include: Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) Fluid overload Vein irritation/phlebitis Electrolyte imbalances Allergic reaction (rare) Always monitor blood sugar and electrolytes during therapy.

  • How does dextrose affect labor?

    Administering dextrose in labor helps prevent low blood sugar and provides energy but should be used judiciously to avoid excessive fetal insulin response (potential for neonatal hypoglycemia).

  • Is dextrose the same as glucose?

    Dextrose is a form of glucose (D-glucose), so they are functionally the same for most medical uses.

  • When should you not use dextrose?

    Avoid dextrose IV in: Allergy to corn or dextrose Hyperglycemia, diabetes (unless treated closely) Severe dehydration with electrolyte imbalances (without correction) Intracranial/intraspinal hemorrhage Consult a physician for contraindications.

  • What medications are not compatible with dextrose?

    Some key drug-Dextrose incompatibilities include: Ceftriaxone (especially in neonates) Certain antibiotics Amphotericin B Phenytoin Always check compatibility charts before co-infusion.
