Update: The 2024 Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice

The Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice provide evidence-based recommendations for infusion and access device related care in any healthcare setting. Developed and published by the Infusion Nurses Society, the Standards have increased the frequency of the revision process from an every 5-year cycle to a 3-year cycle due to the growing base of literature and to deliver the most updated and current practice recommendations. This article provides an overview of the development process and a brief description of selected standards. Notably, a new standard entitled Home Infusion Therapy was added in this latest edition. The Standards are an essential reference that should be available to every home care agency that provides home infusion therapy.
