Drug cards and reference apps are great, but when you're working in the ICU and your patient suddenly needs a drip started, you don't need every piece of information on the med. You need the basics of what to start it at, how to titrate, your max dose, and any other crucial notes. That's it.
Download this free ICU drip chart, print it off, and keep it in your clipboard or with your report sheets for fast reference.
Bonus: You'll also get a blank one!
