Diabetes Education Series - Episode 22: Metformin
In this video, Heather Kleitgen, BSN, RN, CDCES from Latham Medical Group discusses Metformin.
Heather Kleitgen is a registered nurse and certified diabetes care and education specialist (CDCES). She received her Bachelor of Science in nursing from Maria College in Albany, NY, and proceeded to earn her CDCES certification. She is a member of the American Diabetes Association and the Association of Diabetes Care & Education Specialists. Heather has a passion for spreading awareness of the enormity of pre-diabetes and diabetes in the U.S. and globally.
She loves working with people with diabetes to help them understand they have the power to control the disease and lead a healthy life. As a diabetes specialist, Heather spends a lot of time teaching the basics of diabetes; however, she believes it’s really about communicating with the patient to find out where the person is, their personal health goals, and how the team can help them achieve those goals. Moreover, as a nurse, Heather’s whole perspective is to see the bigger picture, the person, their family, social settings, education, financial resources-all the things that influence a person’s life. She thinks getting to know and understanding all of those things helps patients and herself become a team.

recently diagnosed with t2. put on metformin. never felt so horrible in my life. dizzy, week, light headed, off balance and getting the runs is a lesson in patience.
Hi Heather, thanks for sharing your knowledge. My brother and I found your series useful. I like the way you approach food. Have a plan, we're not perfect, don't feel bad if it's not quite right. A healthy and realistic perspective.

Very Educative 🥰 Thank You
Thank you so much for these videos!
I did not find that this Dr looked at you as whole and how one issue can affect the entire body. Nor did I find her "humble and kind".
I went to a training site at a strip mall for one day. Now I work from home 😊
Putting pressure with gauze on the needle while it is still in the arm causes pain. Wait until the needle is out before applying pressure with gauze. The tourniquet should not be on for more than one minute, total, not “for more than one minute after blood begins to flow.” A circular motion using an alcohol pad is no longer recommended. Back and forth and up and down. This changed in 2019. Do not allow the client to pump their fist-this can affect certain blood values. Allow only a steady fist. For your sake, and for the clients’ sakes, palpate only with a glove. I’ve performed thousands and thousands of venipunctures and have never palpated an arm with my bare hand. 😷
Ty Dr. Barnum for caring, listening, and trusting me. You've been such a relief for my situation. God Bless you.
I hope They help keep Aids, Hiv & Std rate down.
"slowly and gently remove the needle from the vein" Pulls it out really fast
Whoa whoa whoa. @ 3:52 you are shaking with the sharp still exposed. Very dangerous.
This is scary, but i have to learn this in my patient care class
My fingers are feeling weak by simply watching, I should watch more videos to get used to it 😅
I found this lady very professional except several US videos the venupuncturists say palpitation instead of palpation , please don’t say that , it’s incorrect . Otherwise a helpful vid 🇦🇺🦘
DO NOT USE THIS VIDEO. As a Phlebotomy Instructor with 11 years experience, a lot lf this stuff is wrong. Very little is correct.😢 You will stick yourself on accident. Smh!!!! No mam!
Great material. I hope you make more of them.
I’m the best phlebotomist in LA.
I am looking for help, something that you recommend please, I got my license but I don’t have any experience
Your city has a ranking of phlebotomists?
Hi! I am also a nurse, how do I go about getting certified to be an educator for diabetes like you?
Hello, what I have found out is certification involves a cert. exam but after spending "1000 Hrs" as a diabetic instructor in-house. I'm interested in a CDCES training program - but unable to find one. If you find cert. training, hope you'll let me know.
palpating AFTER cleansing?? 😰 oh jeez
This video was done 4 years ago. It was probably on point at that time. All she'll need to do is update it to now. I think she did a good job in explaining what she was doing and why. A new video, would help if she did both needles, straight and butterfly. 😊
Nope, not correct. I took a phlebotomy course back in 2006 there was a few mistakes in this video.
Nope, this was wrong 4 years ago and it’s wrong today!
Why is she putting her finger in front of the needle.....
the window method used to be what they followed. now we don’t use that method to prevent needle sticks, use your thumb only to pull down from under the site or draw.
of draw *
Girl get your index finger out the way, dont shake the tube INVERT it and the needle doesn’t have to be that deep and don’t touch the site with your glove after you already cleaned it. If you do have to touch again wipe your tip of your glove with alcohol as well. This video is not a great example!
Thank you so much 💓
at 50% volume you can barely hear anything is it just me or eveyone else also good job on dling the blood draw sincerly 27year plhebotomist in utah
I'm training to become a phlebotomist currently, and I aim to be so much better than the wicked lady that gave me a hematoma fishing around my veins with 2 inch long nails, I should have reported her.
I had no idea this could get that serious. Glad you are ok. 😊
Hi I have a question. I want to know the monthly payment for a phlebotomist. I'm still in grade 10, willing/aiming to become one
@siye.c4935 it varies from school to school, but mine is $242 every month totalling $3000
I'm in 11th grade and I'm taking a healthcare course and we have to learn how to draw blood and do phlebotomy
Did you become one ?
your not to leave last tube in.
I'm a 40 year old man tired of the warehouse life and am interested in doing this instead. Am I barking up the wrong tree?
You should do it!
She didn’t remove the tube before removing the needle?? But said that it should be done. Not sure I heard it right..
Right? She said remove the tube before removing the needle-as she was doing the opposite in the video! Maybe the tube was filled and the vacuum was gone…but still!!
okay glad im not the only one confused by that! I have never kept the tube in while removing the needle
Is there specific class for Phlebotomy and May I May I apply for this class? I live in California
I saw a few mistakes in this video. She inverted her tubes too 😮quickly, and new procedures say you should never make a fist when having your blood drawn! What many patients don't realize is that pumping their fist can inadvertently 👉🏻double the concentration of potassium👈🏻in the sample of blood. And when that happens, the physician gets potassium results that no longer represent what's really going on with the patient.
I just had labs done today and I pumped my fist.
I’m in school and they told us to make the Patient pump the fist, whats the truth?
I had labs today and it was the first time I haven't been told to make a fist. I did wonder!
@@Gemtheone a fist, yes. Don’t pump unless it’s a blood donation. Pumping your fist before a blood draw can have a serious effect on the accuracy of lab results. There are over 80 preanalytical variables that can cause potassium levels to be falsely elevated - and fist pumping is one of the biggest and most common. As an alternative, veins can be made more obvious by warming the site with a warm compress. If you can eradicate one most commonly committed clinical error and ensure that no patient has their blood drawn after pumping their fists, your patients are going to be treated according to more accurate potassium results.

Wow.. you’re amazing! Thank you for this great video! 💯🙏🏽
She’s not. Many errors of technique.
Nurse weighing in here. This demo is wrong on so many levels. Watch some other video!
Worst video on this subject i have seen yet. do better
Nice however you cleaned the area then you contaminated the area by palpating with you finger. After you palpate you must clean area again after you have found the vein of choice.
Oh my goodness! There are serious errors made in this video. STOP DO NOT USE THIS AS A TEACHING TOOL!
I just started a course in phlebotomy. Please explain the errors.
What seems wrong to you here?
She didn’t remove the tube before removing the needle
The tube should be snapped on once needle is in vein not already snapped in when inserting
No no nooooo. Why are you putting your finger next to the needle wtf
Thank you very much
About to start my course in September any advice Ps. I never done anything like this jus find it interesting
Yes, don’t believe what you see in this video. You need to watch other videos from other people. This lady made a lot of mistakes
@@angela1857 how long can one learn phlebotomy training? I want to learn never done before
@@okuodeamuza8953did you find out
