A-Line Setup

[@NIHAGHULAM]

Finally a video that actually explained the reason where the transducer is paced 4th ICS

[@ashleyyun1286]

Isn't that transducer upside down?

[@djxpress]

I just watched another video where the transducer and blood syringe were turned the other way...

[@Smeegirl1]

Exactly!! Normally the transducer connector, where you plug in the art line monitor cable to the transducer itself, is hanging down! That's how I have always done it. He has the entire system upside down. I am so glad someone said that!

[@ashleyyun1286]

and what about removing the air from the bag of fluids before priming - air embolus?

[@Kat-zu3nm]

ashley lovelace as well as flushing out all the air through all caps/ensuring open caps are removed

[@erichlong5569]

Thank God we never let you guys touch our vents!

[@cynthiasexton-wilson4612]

appears that every way you turn the stopcock - you call it "off". Does that mean it doesn't work? lol

[@bingliusong]

if you did not close the switch proximal to pt. before pull out your adapter, there will be blood pumping out

[@Jennyandpups]

[@crystcraw]

You did not clean the port before accessing it.

[@j.k.197]

no one uses sterile technique in videos like in real life.

[@ancientcityinker]

It should be heparinized saline.

[@Kat-zu3nm]

ancientcityinker in the unit we use normal saline but do get heparin from patients getting out of the cath lab and IR
