NexGen Fluids/Electrolytes/IV Therapy
The NexGen Fluids/Electrolytes/IV Therapy module answers essential questions like what is IV therapy used for in nursing? You will learn what are the signs of fluid volume deficit including dry mucous membranes, tachycardia, and decreased urine output.
Our training covers what are the best practices for IV fluid administration from site selection to flow rate monitoring. We explain what is fluid and electrolyte imbalance and what is fluid balance in nursing care.
You will also learn what causes electrolyte imbalance in patients including medications, vomiting, and kidney disease.
Many LVNs lack confidence in IV therapy and fluid management. Our IV therapy course breaks down complex concepts into simple, memorable lessons. The IV certification course includes video demonstrations of insertion, maintenance, and discontinuation.
For IV therapy certification course, we provide practice scenarios and competency checklists. These IV therapy classes online are self-paced with unlimited access. You will learn to identify fluid imbalances, calculate drip rates, and prevent complications. Pass your skills check on the first try.
