Check and Inspect the IV Bag

Expiration Date

For cloudiness or particles – IV Fluid should be clear

For Leakage

Correct IV fluid

Correct amount

And Always Do The 3 Checks of the IVF with the Dr’s Order

Primary Tubing

• Open package

• Pull off paper tab and unroll the tubing

• Close the roller clamp

• Pull off clear tab on IV bag

• Remove plastic covering the spike

• DO NOT touch part of IV bag where tab was removed or spike, IT MUST REMAIN STERILE!

• Spike the IV bag

•

Primary Tubing (Cont) Hang on IV pole Fill drip chamber ½ full Remove end piece from tubing Open roller clamp – Slowly! Flush tubing with IVF

– Keep end of tubing sterile– No large air bubbles in tubing (less than 1”)– Be sure to prime the Y-site, also

Close the roller clamp Replace end piece on tubing

Label Tubing

DateTimeInitials

Label IV Fluids

• Date

• Time

• Initials

• Patient’s name

• Any additions made to IV fluid

Gather IV Equipment

Needle/angiocath Start kit (tape, tourniquet, alcohol pad,

tegaderm, and label) Chux pad Clean gloves Goggles IV Pole

Wash Hands (Don other PPE if needed – Contact Precautions, Agitated patient, etc)

ID your patient – You MUST take the Doctor’s order in with you

Check for allergies:– Tape– Latex– Betadine (if using)

• Do 4th check at the bedside

• Explain procedure

• Provide privacy

• Body Mechanics (Bed up [if standing], etc)

Prepare Supplies

IV pole/pump Angiocath needle Label Tourniquet Cleaning solution

(depends on facility) IV solution & tubing Cut Tape Goggles Chux Tegaderm

Inspect Potential Sites

Place tourniquet around the upper arm

Inspect Potential Sites

Examine and Palpate Veins

Common IV Sites of the Hand

Common IV Sites of the Arm

What are Some Ways to Promote Venous Distention?

Place arm in a dependent position

Have patient open and close fist a couple of time

Warm compresses

“Flicking” the vein

Massaging blood flow proximal to distal

Using a blood pressure cuff instead of a tourniquet

But, Mrs. Meyer, I Can’t See a Vein!

Trust Your Fingers more than Your Eyes

Other things to try:

•Applying Warm Compresses

•Massaging the Blood Flow Proximal to Distal

•Using a Blood Pressure Cuff instead of a Tourniquet

•Use Two Tourniquets instead of One

Other Things to Consider When Selecting an IV site

Is the Skin Intact?

Is your Patient Left or Right Handed?

What is the IV going to be used for?

Avoid Bony Prominances and First 2” of the Inner Side of the Wrist

Avoid Antecubital Area, if Possible.

Use Most Distal Site First

Can not use any site above antecubital

Once You Have Selected Your Site

Prepare For Insertion

Put on Disposable Gloves and Goggles

Place a Chux Pad under the arm

Scrub Site with Alcohol (or what facility requires):

- Allow site to dry

Apply Tourniquet 5 to 6 inches above Insertion Site:

- Secure Tightly enough to Occlude Venous Flow

- Check Presence of Distal Pulse

Perform the Venipuncture

Use your Nondominant Hand to Anchor the Vein

- Stretch Skin Dorsal to Site - Do not “Hop Scotch” your Thumb

Warn Patient of the Stick

With dominant hand: Insert the Stylet, bevel up, at a 20 to 30° angle

- Hold by Flash Chamber, not IV hub

Watch for a “Flash Back” of Blood

Advance Stylet into Vein

Loosen Catheter from Stylet

Advance Catheter into vein

Whew! I’m in the Vein, Now What?

Occlude vein at cannula end Before pulling the stylet

completely out or

IT WILL LOOK LIKE A BLOODY MASSACRE!IT WILL LOOK LIKE A BLOODY MASSACRE!

“POP” the tourniquet (loosen it without letting go of the IV)

Quickly attach the IV tubing to the IV catheter

Moving Along…………

• Slowly open the roller clamp

• Tape the hub of the catheter – Do not tape over insertion site- Chevron- U

• Place Tegaderm over insertion site and hub of cannula

• Tape the rest of the IV tubing – Make a “J”

Clean Up Time

Remove Gloves and goggles

Dispose all used materials

Throw Stylet in Sharps Container

• Insert IV Tubing Spike – Do not touch spike, it’s sterile!

• Fill drip chamber ½ full by squeezing drip chamber

• Prime Secondary Tubing

– There are Two Ways:

1. Open roller clamp. Prime tubing & connector. (#7 on list)

2. Prime the tubing using retrograde fluid flow from the primary IV solution (See #16, 17, & 18 on your list)

Now, we’re Primed & Ready to Go…

Label Tubing (Date, Time, Initials)

Hang 1° IV bag lower than IVPB – Use hanger. Connect to primary tubing using connector.Open Roller Clamp of IVPB !!!!!
