what is a glucose drip and how is it administered
Answers
Answer:
A glucose drip is an intravenous dextrose solution given to people that are suffering from low blood sugar or dehydration. It’s done in an I.V. bag, usually in dextrose 5% in water. Either 1,000 mL or 500 mL I.V. bags depending on the situation. Like any other I.V. administration, the solution is injected through a vein in the patient’s arm. The bag is hung from a stand and then gravity fed to the patient.

Step-by-step explanation:
A drip is sometimes known as a cannula, intravenous fluids or IV. It is a short, small plastic tube. A doctor or nurse will use a needle to put the drip into your child's vein. The doctor or nurse will leave the plastic tube in so that fluids and medicines can go directly into the blood.
