Tips and FAQs About Ordering and Organizing Infusion Supplies

30. September 2025 Candy Finley Infusion Basics, Nursing Support (0)
Discover best practices to keep you and your patient prepared and organized for infusion day. The most important thing you will need in the home as a field nurse are proper supplies. If anything is missing, it may delay the infusion or cause it to be rescheduled. Nufactor provides all ancillary supplies a nurse needs to complete an infusion except for a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, and thermometer, which are to be provided by the nurse. Upon start of care (SOC), the pharmacy will send a small quantity of extra supplies in a labeled back up kit. This helps to ensure the infusion can be completed if extra supplies are needed unexpectedly. The back up kit also contains items that may only be needed in specific situations such as rate flow tubing or N95 masks. If ordered, an anaphylaxis kit is also provided at SOC. [More]

Practical Strategies for Patients and Caregivers to Minimize Reactions with Subcutaneous Immune Globulin (SCIG)

30. June 2025 Candy Finley Infusion Basics, Nursing Support (0)
Providing clear and concise information for patients receiving subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG) therapy, is of utmost importance. SCIG treatments can be life-changing for people with immune deficiencies and autoimmune conditions; localized site reactions are anticipated and generally well-tolerated and should not be considered a contraindication to treatment continuation. In this blog, I will share some practical strategies to help minimize these reactions and hopefully improve the overall experience for patients and caregivers. Typical localized site reactions include but are not limited to burning, itching, redness, swelling, and pain to injection sites. These reactions should minimize over time once the body gets used to the drug. [More]

28. April 2025 Candy Finley (0)
Hizentra® is indicated for Primary immunodeficiency (PI) in adults and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older and maintenance therapy in adults with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Upon initial FDA approval, Hizentra® was commercially available in vials only. The manufacturer of Hizentra®, CSL Behring, has since transitioned from vials to prefilled syringes (PFS). Hizentra® is available in 1 gm/5 mL, 2 gm/10 mL, 4 gm/20 mL, and 10 gm/50 mL sizes. The recommended Hizentra® dose and volume, rate per SC site and volume per SC site are typically greater in CIDP compared to PI. [More]

17. July 2024 Candy Finley Disease States, Nursing Support (0)
As a nurse, I have had the privilege of caring for patients with a variety of challenging diseases. One of the most challenging and complex diseases I have encountered was rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and potential joint damage. It’s not just a physical condition; it affects the emotional and psychological well-being of the patient as well. In this blog, I aim to share insights into RA from a nurse’s perspective, providing information on the disease, its management, and the importance of a holistic care approach. [More]
