Pass the Time While Receiving IV Therapy Dyer IN

Things to do while you receive IV therapy Dyer IN

IV therapy or intravenous therapy is the infusion of liquid substances directly into a vein. It may also be referred to as a “drip” because many times a drip chamber will be used. A drip chamber is a device  which keeps air from entering the bloodstream, and it also allows for control of the rate of flow of the liquid being infused. IV therapy Dyer IN

There are several uses of IV therapy Dyer IN. These include correcting electrolyte imbalances, delivering medications, blood transfusion, fluid replacement, or chemotherapy. The intravenous route is the fastest way to deliver fluids and medication throughout the body.

While you are receiving IV therapy there are some things you can do to pass the time. There are the obvious items to bring– something to read, a book, magazine or newspaper. You could do a crossword puzzle or sudoku puzzle, or play a handheld game. Bring your own music on an ipod, or bring a movie to watch. Bring your computer and get some work done, answer emails, or bring a pen and paper and write letters. You might want a neck pillow and your knitting or crocheting project. You might also want to take this opportunity to nap, pray or meditate.

You should do whatever helps you relax and get into a positive frame of mind while you are receiving IV therapy Dyer IN.
