Experience of Nurses with Intravenous Fluid Monitoring for Patient Safety: A Qualitative Descriptive Study.

This study found that nurses experienced high levels of stress when administering infusions in the correct dose and rate for patient safety. Administering and monitoring infusions were complicated because nursing processes interplay with human and system factors. Future research is needed to develop nursing interventions that include human and system factors to promote patient safety by reducing infusion-related errors.
