IV Filters

I happened across this (in SV net...the black hole of info) while looking for another IV policy and thought it might be beneficial (and I knew I would never be able to find it again)

Use 0.22 micron filter for:
non-lipid containing admixtures (parenteral nutrition)
Mannitol
Gangiclovir
Digiband
Phenytoin for infusion
Thrombolytic agent for infusion
Taxol (has its own tubing with filter)
Rifampin
All infusions via central lines/PICC except for the following:
• IV push medications
• Amphotericin B
• Nitroglycerin
• Insulin
• Vincristine
• Diprivan
• Albumin
• Lipids
• Blood/Blood Products
Use 1.2 micron filter for 3-in-1 lipid containing TPN and lipid fluids via a central line.
Midlines are treated as a peripheral IV site in regards to filtering.
