IV heparin bolus or push, what rate, how fast?

akarakas

Good morning

I wanted to get more info on how other hospitals give IV Heparin bolus/push
Can it be given as IV push over 1 min- 5min, what is the max?
Can we give as IV bolus, do we use the IV bag drip to give bolus or do we mix 5000 unit/50ml NS/D5W over10- 30 min,

What is the max rate to be given at?
IV Heparin bolus=_________________
IV heparin push ___________________

Can you please give me some information or a protocol you use at your institution
Thank you

Martina
