Infusion Therapy At Home

What is IV & Infusion Therapy?

IV (intravenous) therapy delivers medications, fluids, and nutrients directly into the bloodstream, providing rapid absorption and effectiveness. Infusion therapy is used to treat a variety of conditions, including dehydration, infections, autoimmune diseases, cancer, nutritional deficiencies, and chronic illnesses that require ongoing medication administration.

Common types of IV therapies include:

Antibiotic Therapy – For infections requiring long-term IV antibiotics.
Hydration Therapy – For dehydration and electrolyte imbalances.
Pain Management Infusions – For chronic pain conditions requiring IV medications.
Chemotherapy & Immunotherapy – For cancer treatment and immune support.
Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) – For patients unable to receive adequate nutrition orally.
Biologic & Specialty Infusions – For autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or Crohn’s disease.

Administering IV therapy at home ensures proper medical monitoring, reduces the risk of hospital-acquired infections, and enhances patient comfort during treatment.

Helpful Tips for Family Caregivers

1. Ensure a Sterile Environment – Keeping the infusion area clean and washing hands before handling equipment can help prevent infections and complications.

2. Monitor for Side Effects – Watch for symptoms such as redness, swelling, fever, or discomfort around the IV site, which may indicate infection or complications requiring medical attention.

3. Stay Hydrated and Follow Treatment Plans – Encourage your loved one to stay hydrated and adhere to the prescribed infusion schedule to maximize the therapy’s effectiveness.
