IV Insertion Tips for Nurses/Nursing 2020. Inserting IVs for nurses is important, I will teach you tricks for IV insertion, things I did to improve my IV insertion techniques! • Great products to buy to practice with: • https://amzn.to/2FJXTPz • https://amzn.to/32Cpv1W • I used to SUCK at inserting IV's. It was terrible, I knew how to do them but no matter what I did I KEPT blowing the vein or going through and through and it SUCKED. IV access is probably one of the most important nursing interventions in all of nursing. I would put it as important as giving CPR to a person that is coding - assuming they are full code of course :). • Make sure you watch my previous video on how to start IV's if you are interested in learning how to start them! • In this video I will talk more about inserting IV's and tricks that REALLY helped me be able to insert them with a 90% success rate. • Theory: • IV LEVELS: • Tricks: • 1. Turn on lights. This may seem obvious but good lighting is key for good veins to insert IV's in. • 2. When you've applied the tourniquet, make sure you palpate the vein and see if it is really rolly . That means if you see it roll around in the arm, the tells you it is important to pull the skin tight so the vein doesn't move. I pull the skin down. HOWEVER this creates a problem. You can't see the vein anymore. So right before insertion make a note OR use an alcohol swab and put the corner of it where the vein is so you can keep track. Like so: • • 3. Appropriate gauges… The hand has really small veins don't go for a 18 gauge IV. Realistically you can get like a 22 or MAYBE a 20… • 4. Choose the appropriate spots for insertion… • 5. Be sure to identify the type of patient you have, some are more likely to move, others can just handle the pain better of an insertion… Always consider the patient. • 6. Identify where it is in relation to patient behavior. If the person makes fists a lot or is not able to listen to your instructions well then maybe the hand isn't the best place, the forearm is better. • ○ HOWEVER, I will say sometimes you do not have time to get a PERFECT placement but you need IV access to control the pain, nausea or even HR, so just get an IV anywhere for now and re-assess later… (of course this isn't best practice but what can you do, better to control the symptom that get a perfect iv placement) • 7. Identify the patients need for an IV, any special considerations (CT with contrast? Will probably need a 20 gauge to be safe)… • BD's website: • https://www.bd.com/en-ca/company/vide... • ❤️ Check out my Facebook page: http://tiny.cc/lbxgfz • • 📢 Support the channel buy purchasing Simple Fit Nursing gear!: • https://teespring.com/stores/the-simp... • • 🚀Consider sharing this video with a friend, the channel is relatively new and I would greatly appreciate your support! • • 🔔 Please subscribe to my channel!
