Hello. Recently one of our techs mixed 4 boxes of 2k granuflo and 4 boxes of 3K granuflo because they were on the same pallet. Still no excuse!

My question is what would the outcome be in this case? I know that some of the PCT's have taken a bottle of 1K mixed with 3K to get 2K. How does this add up? We are all confused now. Please help.

Thanks

What!!???

Did the mix get transferred?

You guys should be using packets to raise 1k to 2k. An when changing the potassium or calcium levels, it should be a nurse that does it.

You'll have 2.5K acid. Tell your Medical Director and let him decide if he wants to go ahead and use the stuff you mixed, because it's his prescription decision.

IDAHO, HCO3 is also a drug. Why aren't they mixing that? 4a.m. probably has something to do with it!

technically you cannot mix the a 1k and a 3k to get a 2k. Try a small amount for yourself and have it sent to the lab for the actual results, it will actually surprise you.
