    Area of Science:

    • Pharmaceutical Science
    • Clinical Pharmacy

    Context:

    • Infusion therapy's role has expanded significantly.
    • Ensuring efficiency requires careful indication and administration.
    • Awareness of infusion solution risks is crucial for healthcare professionals.

    Purpose:

    • To identify sources of particulate contamination in infusion solutions.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of 5-micron filters in reducing particle influx.

    Summary:

    • Intrinsic contamination of commercial solutions is low due to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations.
    • Extrinsic contamination during clinical use, particularly from additional injections, significantly increases particle load.
    • 5-micron filters effectively reduce particle influx by over 90% and are practical for routine use.
