Ch. 13 Sterile and Hazardous Compounding
Across
- 5. IV solutions of more than 250 ml. that may contain medications, nutrients, or electrolytes
- 6. drops per milliliter
- 8. the natural flow of the molecules in solutions through semi-permeable cell walls
- 10. an inactive ingredient that is added to the active drug in compounding a tables, capsule, solution, or topical formulation
- 13. the amount of solution manufacturers add to make up for the loss of water due to evaporation through plastic
- 15. the flow pattern with which cells or tissues respond to the compounded solution
- 18. a room that is at a lower pressure from adjacent rooms because air is suctioned out into an external filtered exhaust system to protect the compounding personnel from the hazardous agents
- 20. the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a solution; less chan 7 is acidic and more than 7 is alkaline; the pH of blood is 7.4
- 23. short-term parenteral nutrition with carbohydrates and/or lipids
- 26. an IV line that is connected to a catheter inserted in a peripheral vein in a limb rather chan in a main blood vein leading to the heart
- 28. the pressure required to maintain equilibrium, with no net movement of solvent
- 29. a container of supplies, warning sig-nage, and related materials used to contain the spill of an HD
- 30. IV solutions of generally 25 to 250 mL, typically administered as an IV piggyback (infusing into the LVP)
Down
- 1. a record that documents the ingredients, calculations, and compounding process, and any deviations from the master formulation record, which allows for traceability
- 2. a substance added in multiple-dose containers to inhibit microbial growth and promote a longer shelf-life
- 3. the ability of two or more base components to combine in solu-cion or with other solutions (such as another IV solution or blood serum) without resulting in physical or chemical property changes to any of them
- 4. placing the needle tip into the inside of the cap and scooping it up before putting pressure on the cap to secure it
- 7. a sterile solution containing a concentration of 0.9% sodium chloride in water
- 9. a container of sterile medication (water or saline) that contains preservatives used to reconstitute medication powders
- 11. a specialized practice that compounds and dispenses sterile radioactive pharmaceuticals
- 12. a needle that is equipped with a 5-micron (or finer) filter within its core to catch any microscopic glass shards and impurities to prevent them from entering the CSP
- 14. a container of sterile medication for parenteral administration (eg., injection or infusion) that is designed for use with a single patient as a single injec-tion/infusion; a single-dose container does not contain a preservative
- 16. more than one unit of CSP prepared in a single process for more than one patient and intended to have uniform characteristics and quality, within specified limits
- 17. a small, hermetically sealed sterile container
- 19. Ring a scored area on the neck of an ampule that marks the site where a technician will break the glass to access the ampule's contents
- 21. a hazardous agent that reduces or prevents the growth of cancer cells
- 22. administration of IV fluids and/ or medication, commonly expressed in ml. per hour
- 24. the concentration of all molecules in a volume of fluid
- 25. the technique of inserting a little air pressure and withdrawing a little fluid into a syringe
- 27. the act of running fluid through IV tubing to flush out small particles and expel air from the cubing before medication administration
