IV Therapy

Intravenous therapy or IV therapy is the giving of liquid substances directly into a vein. It can be intermittent or continuous; continuous administration is called an intravenous drip. The word intravenous simply means "within a vein", but is most commonly used to refer to IV therapy. Compared with other routes of administration, the intravenous route is the fastest way to deliver fluids and medications throughout the body. We provide patients and their family with the knowledge needed to properly and successfully administrate an IV.
