Demo Dose Heparin - 1,000 U/Ml, PN01090

$10.95

Description

Simulated Medication: This product is a simulated version of Heparin, an anticoagulant commonly referred to as a "blood thinner." It is designed to look and be handled like the real medication.
Realistic Appearance: The product comes in a vial that mimics the appearance of a real Heparin vial, with a realistic label showing the drug name and a strength of 1,000 units per mL.
Contains Sterile Water: The vial is filled with sterile water. This allows students to practice the physical handling of the vial, drawing up the correct dosage, and administering it without the risks associated with a real medication.
Educational Aids: The product often includes blank physician's order sheets and medication administration records (MARs), which allows for comprehensive training in documentation as well as administration.
Safety: The product is clearly labeled for instructional use only.

Medication Administration Training: The primary use is to teach students in nursing, medical, and pharmacy programs how to safely prepare and administer a high-alert medication like Heparin.
Dosage Calculation Practice: It is a key tool for practicing dosage calculations, as students must determine the correct volume to draw up based on a simulated order.
High-Alert Medication Training: Heparin is a high-alert medication, meaning it has an increased risk of causing significant harm to a patient if used incorrectly. Using a simulated version allows students to practice the "five rights" of medication administration and other safety protocols in a safe environment.
Simulation Scenarios: The product is used in simulation labs to create realistic scenarios involving blood clots, deep vein thrombosis, or other conditions where Heparin would be administered.
