Subject: Re: extravasation picturesI doubt your will find much about legal cases because most of these are settled out of court without a trial. This means that the settlement is confidential and both parties agree not to discuss it. I may serve as an expert in these cases, but I am never told the details of the outcome if it did not go to trial. Out of about 40 cases in the past 10 years, I have never testified at a trial. So the vast majority never go to trial. LynnAt 3:10 PM -0500 2/6/06, Heather Nichols wrote:Content-Type: text/html
Content-Description: HTMLI would like to obtain some really gruesome extravasation pictures. I am especially interested in cytotoxic drugs (Taxol in particular). The Gyn/Onc doc's in my facility are trying to say it is ok to give vesicant chemo drugs peripherally as long as they are less then 4 hour infusions. If the peripheral site was receiving appropriate observation and care, it might not be bad, but they want to put a patient in a closed off room, away from nursing supervision, and give these infusions. The nurses are scared to death. I need to put together a scarey presentation for these doc's complete with pictures and possibly some legal cases (Sue? Darnell?) Can anyone help me out? E-mail me privately.Thanks ahead of time!Heather Nichols RN BSN CRNI
