IV Infusions

An IV (intravenous) infusion is a medical procedure that delivers fluids, medications, or nutrients directly into a person’s bloodstream through a vein, typically using a needle and a flexible tube connected to a bag of fluid. This method allows for rapid absorption and is used for hydration, administering drugs, and providing nutrients or blood when a person cannot take them orally. The process involves inserting a small plastic tube (cannula) into a vein, securing it with a dressing, and connecting it to a bag of fluid that can be administered over a set period.
