Anesthesia, Resuscitation, and ICU: Q&A
in Health ·
Please forgive my sudden intrusion here—I have a question that I'm hoping someone might be able to clear up for me.
What exactly does "bolus" mean? Specifically, administering a medication as a bolus... which types of drugs are given this way, and what is the clinical reasoning behind it?
I’m asking on behalf of a close family member who is trying to wrap their head around this, as they have an upcoming procedure at the hospital quite soon. My apologies again for the interruption.
