Clinical case: It deals with a patient who realized the incorrect administration of the intravenous solution since the data written on the label of the solution belonged to another patient. Conclusion: The management of infusion therapy is a standardized procedure performed by the nursing staff that, when applied well, will reduce adverse events and contribute to quality care.
