Overview of oxytocin in Uniject Single use: Uniject is a single-use, disposable injection device that contains one 10-IU dose of oxytocin Accurate: Uniject provides an accurate 10-IU dose of oxytocin with minimal preparation and waste. Prefilled dose: Uniject can improve the ability of midwives and village health workers to administer oxytocin outside of hospitals. Assurance of potency: A time-temperature indicator (TTI) is included on the package to inform the user whether the medication is still active, should be used soon, or is inactive.

Key steps for using oxytocin in Uniject Select a safe and effective dose of oxytocin in Uniject using the TTI. Remove the Uniject from the foil pouch, activate the device, and remove the needle cap. Give an intramuscular injection using the Uniject device. Safely discard the Uniject according to established medical waste procedures.

Objectives Understand how to select a safe and effective dose of oxytocin in Uniject. Understand how to administer injections using oxytocin in Uniject. Understand how to safely dispose of oxytocin in Uniject. Complete practice injections with Uniject using oranges.

Using a TTI to select a safe and effective dose of oxytocin in Uniject A TTI is a label made of heat- sensitive material that is placed on the oxytocin in Uniject package to show cumulative heat exposure over time. Check the TTI to see if the inner square s lighter than the outer circle. Discard the oxytocin in Uniject if the inner square is the same color or darker than the outer circle.
