Mastering safe infusion therapy: join the BD Webinar and find out how to prevent errors and implement best practice

Intravenous (IV) medication errors are common in healthcare^1,2,3, with studies showing that up to 10% of IV administrations are associated with an error in the UK, and 1 in 10 of these may be harmful³. In critical care settings, where precision is key, understanding how to apply the “5 Rights” of safe medication administration^5,6 can be the difference between optimal patient care and potential risk.

BD invites healthcare professionals to an exclusive webinar on 4 June 2025, focusing on the importance of syringe pump compatibility and infusion safety in critical care.
