I made my entire EMS department watch this video. Each and every Paramedic is thankful. Its standard in the field now for difficult sticks. Success has been 3 fold. Thank You!
Negative. You have to make mistakes to improve. If anything the less experienced should be the ones called over to start an iv or get a blood sample. If you baby them and have others do their job they will never be mere than they are at that moment.
I'm a recoverd 17 year I.V. heroin user. I've been hospitalized many times and I've taught a couple nurses how to hit difficult veins. I'm very good at it!
Good luck, I’ve had addicts and my first question to them always is “Where’s your best vein, bud?” Unfortunately, inevitably it’s “I don’t know, they’re all bad now”. Damn it!
I get addicts in the ER and if they're not currently high they've all been super super nice about finding veins with me! I'm not that good yet so I usually ask for help anyway, but then at least I can tell them where to try first
I just shared this on my phone with a prep op nurse in between my cases. When I returned to retrieve my phone, I see that she is sharing the video with 3 other nurses. I am sure all the preop nurses in our hospital will know this technique . Thanks for sharing the great video and knowledge.

I'm a former emergency nurse and now nurse anesthetist and I have a very high success rate with IV but sometimes I have to cheat with ultra sounds. I will try this very intersting technique as soon as possible! Thanks!

I used to work in pre-op holding. Started a lot of IVs. Used BP cuff, warm blankets & hung arm down for gravity assist when faced with a difficult start. Some veins are just difficult to access despite your best efforts.
Yes. Some are a hardstick but the vast majority of issues is the result of the dumbass hospital keeping it stupid cold. When they pull their heads out of their ass then starting IVs won't ever be an issue but there will always be a few patients that their veins are too small for the gauge or their veins roll but generally speaking if the dumbasses turn the temp up that solves the problem because it will allow the veins to deconstrict.

I was having a surgery on my arm and they tried to start an IV on me and all the nurses tried and then all the doctors in the emergency room tried the only one who could get a vein to work for me was the anesthesiologist he got it way up in my arm and when he put me to sleep they started a better one

I’m a paramedic, just went from the city of a tops 10 min transport to the county of at least an hour transport. I can definitely see myself taking out ace bandage and trying this once or twice. Great!
Good luck to you! I've got several good friends that have made the switch (or cover some shifts in rural areas) and while it certainly can change how you practice, most of them enjoy having the ability to actually use their skillset before arriving at the hospital!

As a Paramedic I want to add in that veins don't wiggle, roll, run away, etc. Can they spasm or be moved/pushed by a needle before it punctures the vein? Yes... Is there anything we as providers can do about these issues? ABSOLUTELY! Holding traction on a vein, preferably at 3 points (2 minimum, above & below the insertion point) and keeping that traction until the cannula has been fully inserted typically makes the difference between a successful attempt or having to stick a patient again. Also, PRACTICE! In the beginning it doesn't even need to be practice sticking, but take your tourniquet home and practice finding/feeling the veins of anyone that will allow you to try! If you learn what veins feel like (that soft, sponge like, slightly bouncy feel - everyone explains it differently) plus learn to feel for valves, bifurcations, etc. You'll be much better prepared for whatever situations you may come across. Some of the best veins can be felt but are not particularly visible! This video is great! While it's "low-tech" that's exactly the type of continued learning & teaching we should all be doing because it's accessible most anywhere at anytime!
People in healthcare are dumbasses these days. All it takes is don't keep the stupid hospital so cold and you won't have any issues. It's an easy fix problem.

I decided to watch this after a hospital visit to the VA hospital. The nurse was trying to draw blood and put an IV in me. She was unsuccessful in my left arm several times. It started to hurt after the 4rth unsuccessful poke and I told her to stop and just do the right arm. It took another unsuccessful poke and another nurse to get the job done. I wish the first nurse would watch this because she didn't even care about keeping the patient warm. I was shivering and maybe that could of helped her draw blood easier along with this method.
I used to be a patient care assistant and ever time no one could draw blood on the patient, I have my own technique for Pre-Op patients for difficult veins. I used to used almost the same technique or sometimes a double torniquetes. Whatever works and whatever gives you the best option for you to succeed. This was outstanding, Now that I'm Nursing school I will definitely use this video again and show to my classmates when is time to do IV drawn. Thank you.

This is a technique that can be used even in the most resource limited settings. Nowadays there is too much reliance on technology but not everyone has access to ultrasound. Thank you for showing this useful technique. And yes, anything that happens amiss is always blamed on the anesthesiologist. 😅

As someone who very much dislikes no is tormented by the thoughts of IV and any needles because I was on dialysis for almost 11 years. I was diagnosed with systemic lupus nephritis which completely ruined both of my kidneys and overall health. I had both arms destroyed by procedures in which they tried to get fistulas and or grafts. I remember when they did this green light to track my veins which made it a lot easier to find it and get an IV or draw blood. I have been poked by different people for years and I always tell them to please use a butterfly needle. I have had some less compassionate people one who told me that I should stop being scared and he poked me digging .I yelled at him to stop because he was hurting me. He called me a big baby and started laughing at me. I wish they would implement this every where especially for people who have trouble like myself. It would definitely help ease the anxiety of the over poking.

I am in paramedic school now and currently practicing IV's on a fake arm (the veins actually fill with fake blood, it's pretty cool). So far it has been pretty easy to locate a vein because it is basically Shaq's arm 😂 I want the real deal! An 80 y/o F with diabetes and edema. I'm glad this video delivered, and showed actual IV situations. TY
I am such a HORRIBLE STICK!! It takes a few nurses however many times they want to try, then we try ultrasound or go for a P.I.C.C. I am actually used to it by now and I help out as best I can!!!
I am very difficult to find. My veins are very small and tend to slip aside at attempts to venipuncture. I am considering purchasing my own Esmarch strap and bring it with me. I can "coach" the people on how to apply it on me. It beats a venous cutdown! This is a great video. In addition, I would also suggest that the staff gently "prevent" the vein from sliding away from the needle during placement. This can be done by putting another finger just proximal to the insertion point over the vein to "hold it down." A "sliding target" is always harder to get.

We need more anesthesia providers with the willingness to speak truth to power. Thank you for “standardizing,” the level of care given to the pt. presenting with hip fracture/advanced age. Mom fractured her right hip February 2020. Dad his left April 2020. Mom fractured her left hip August 2020, and died at home in November. Both received “spinal,” for the first surgery and did very well. Mom received general/endotracheal for her second-she did not recover from the cognitive decline.

To Harold Marks: Spinals work well for uncomplicated hip procedures lasting 2 hours or less (the duration that a spinal works). If it is a complicated surgery lasting longer than two hours a spinal is not a good choice in any circumstance.
I'm just a patient but find this very interesting especially after so many failed attempts, over many years, at cannulation. My worst was just yesterday when the cannulator at my CT scan said the vein had “popped”. He didn’t say, ‘I’ve popped the vein.’ Apparently I have visible but fragile veins - something which no one has ever stated before. More training should be given to medical staff who perform this task. Excellent video.
We have plenty of training. You clearly have a lack of understanding. Everyone wants to pretend they are unique, but I assure you that your vascular system is not.

Great ideas, i went to 1 year school 1000+ bed hospital to be an IV RN. Included pharmacokinetics. Tapping I always used. I always would start distal & work proximal. Now everyone goes for ACF, ruining other sites. So when I worked in OR-many times anesthesia would say “ do you mind” -of course not. Team efforts. Like you lowering angle is very important as well as direct( above vein) or indirect ( where a bifurcation might occur. Many forget about basilic vein , standing behind patient. Please do not misconstrue with egoism. It is a valuable skill set. Everything from 16 ga-30ga. Esmarch is great idea. Great video

Thanks for this, an interesting use of the Esmarch bandage, and I might well give this a try next time there are surgeons pacing up and down peering through the window of the anaesthetic room as I'm onto my sixth cannulation attempt...! Just to flag up, in your second case study the patient's face is briefly visible (alebit under a FRSM) whereas all the other participants' faces are blurred out - not sure if that was deliberate as the patient didn't mind, but thought you'd like to know. Keep up the good work, this is a great video.
Thank you! All patients signed consent for recording video and sharing for teaching purposes. Regardless, showing participants' faces is not necessary, and we are very grateful that just about all our subjects are happy to contribute to the education. Our postproduction staff does their best to blurr and de-identify, but a sharp eye always detects an omission or two. Thank you again and best regards.

I have really terrible veins and am on IVIG so I will definitely save this video in case we have trouble with my veins again in 2 weeks. I have had to cancel my treatments before becUse we couldn't hit a vein.
Wow I’m impressed!! I had surgery last week and the Anaesthetist couldn’t get a cannula in. I did warn him in advance that he would have problems. This is a problem I have whenever I have surgery, in the past I’ve had two Anaesthetists try and get a cannula in and I ended up with a cannula just over my outer wrist bone which was very painful when the Anaesthetic went in. I used to be sedated for dental treatment and the anaesthetist there could never get a cannula in either, so he had to put me to sleep with gas. I was told by the Anaesthetist last week that if he couldn’t get a line in that he would have to get the ultrasound machine in to locate a vein. On his first attempt he told me he had popped a vein in my hand and it looks all bruised now, but fading, he managed to get a line in on his second attempt on my left forearm on the inside. A few days before surgery I had to have routine blood tests and the nurses struggled to draw blood, it took 2 nurses several attempts and several needles later they managed to get one vial of blood. I’ve had 26 surgeries now and it always seems to be a problem. I’ve had Phlebotomists take blood and can do it first time!!! Maybe they should be anaesthetists??!!!!! Lol
Drawing blood is much easier than placing an IV. Rarely is it difficult to actually puncture a vein to obtain blood, the complicating factor with an IV is poking it just deep enough without going through the backside of the vein to allow the IV catheter to carefully slide into it… without slipping out during insertion
@@timdunagan8230 really, you must be super good at it then. I’m having a bad time atm as I need dental treatment and I’m local anesthetic resistant . So have to wait 18 months to see a dentist that can sedate me! Meanwhile I’m in pain!!! No fun at all!!

Videos like these are great for paramedics cause we just simply don't have ultrasound or vein finder available to us (in most systems anyways). Thank you for sharing this. I'd never seen the technique of actually bending the needle before

As a pediatric nurse who works exclusively on a vascular access (IV team) I would never recommend placing IV’s in someone’s wrist like that. There are many nerves in that area and the risk for permanent nerve damage is very high. Please be mindful.
Hi Cactus Flower! Point well taken. Thank you for sharing. Indeed where venous access is available elsewhere it's preferable. However, superficial location of these nerves in expert hands and with small IV catheters can be used with relatively little risk. Greetings to you and your colleagues!!
That is very true. My nerves got permanenntly damaged during an insuccessful cannulation. The nurse was going way too deep in the in the antecubital vein and then she shot the saline solution in my arm multiple times despite not being in the vein. I was screaming in agony. In the end she got mad and started cursing and left me there on the bed without anything on my arm. Needless to say, there was obviously bloos everywhere. Then another nurse came and she said let's just draw blood and do exams and if she needs to stay in, then we will try again with the iv. Anyway, after that i went home because the results were okay. But my arm was so swollen for weeks. I didn't develop a bruise because she was who knows where but not in the vein. But after that i had severe tussue inflamation, i had to use a cream and my nerves never healed.To this day, if i touch a particular spot on my forearm it tingles and starts to slightly hurt.

The blood pressure cuff allows greater control over pressure applied. I use the BP cuff exclusively. It is also very helpful when the walls of the vein are thin and applying too much pressure causes them to burst.

The best technique to succeed is... to have no other choice but succeeding. I've never been the best at "canulation" through my GP residency. But when I was alone at the 3am taking care of a pregnant woman in septic shock because of pyelonephritis I succeeded an arterial blood puncture first try (for blood gas analysis) in the ulnar artery... only to realise 10 mins later that I accidentaly chose the ulnar artery instead of the radial one. And her blood pressure was something like 60/30 mmhg. It was such a powerfull moment. It needed to be done, I had no other choice... Boom. Done. I used to suck at arterial blood punctures, still do under normal circumstances though.
Well said! There really is something powerful about moments like these, when you're put to the test and have no choice but to make it happen. Kudos for making sure your patient had the best possible care, and best wishes from all of us at NYSORA.

I like this ace bandage idea for vasculature that just won't inflate, particularly the elderly or those in shock. We shouldn't have to bend the needle (risking fissures or separation from base) if the angle of entry starts parallel to the skin, then 10 degrees down. Most errors I've seen is a 45 degree entry that goes right through an oval shaped vessel. When I had surgery, there were four attempts to start my IV while I watched that 45 degree angle push into my hand. The anxiety level of the staff was escalating, and I was worried he would ruin all access points with bad technique, so I said calmly, "I draw blood all the time, so let me talk you through it. The blood vessel is just under the skin, barely 1/8 of an inch, for lean people like myself, and variably deeper for obese, but not so deep it's in muscle. First, when you pull the skin taut, don't put your thumb over the vessel feeding your access site because even with the tourniquet, you're inadvertently shutting off the flow to the vein with your thumb. Instead, pull the skin from either side of the feeding vein. Next, when you push the needle down on it, the blood vessel will go from round to slightly oval because it's pliable. If your angle is too steep you'll pass right through the vessel to the other side. Come in shallow until you get a flash, then level out." To his immense relief (and mine), he got it during the tutorial and I was wheeled away to la-la land.

Great tip to help with IV access. I will definitely be trying this. One criticism however, your colleague appears to be placing a Bair Hugger hose under the blanket without the use of a warming blanket, commonly referred to as "hosing" the patient. This has led to burns and should be avoided.
Agreed. Ideally, it would be a forced-air device into a specialized full-body warming blanket. Unfortunately, this would be impractical and time prohibitive in many of our fast-paced OR cases where patients are fully awake and able to advise on too much or too little heat. Thank you for the comment and do the Reverse Esmarch. We have been releasing also some low-tech clinical pearls. I am personally always surprised to learn that trainees and practitioners have seen or heard of these. Best
This patient is awake for IV placement and would be able to verbally tell the staff if he became too hot. On an anesthetized patient I agree with you. But he is suggesting this for IV placement alone so they can induce the patient. In this circumstance I don’t see it as a problem.

Heck! I wish one was used on me! I eventually had a PICC line put in and got a Massive infection in 2 days later. My temp was 103° for at least a week before I was admitted. Besides the fever, the chills were excruciatingly painful. I hope never to be that sick again.
IV certified, great series. Some require indirect approach or directly at bifurcation. They blame anesthesia, when they never are properly tra, always use ACF

I do CT scans, some times they are very difficult because the great amount of contrast that we use in a very short time, and the veins must be enought big to this propose. And with oncology pacients is the worst because the chemiotherapy debilits the veins. I will try with my coworkers this metod. Thanks
For real I do mri scan. These patient will literally complained about how “they just did their lab work and it was easy and quick “. And I’m like drawing blood and injecting contrast in the veins are not the same smh. If the that veins ain’t strong enough for the contrast it will blow .

This is good for the OR but in the ER most patients will refuse an iv placement at the inside of the wrist. Also not very useful to get large bore IV's in the ac which are preferred for emergencies
I was thinking the same. I’m a new grad working in the ER. We usually stick to the AC, forearm or hand. Wrist is a last resort. I’m trying to find videos that can help me because I’m awful at IV sticks unless the patient has excellent veins.

Thank you for sharing your amazing techniques and knowledge! I had a question regarding how long a tourniquet can stay on. What is the guideline? I notice you say it is okay and recommended to leave it on to allow the veins to fill, but are there any dangers of leaving it on too long? I have heard 1 minute MAX and 5 minutes you start to run into issues. Thank you.
Emergency textbooks sat tourniquet damage typically happens after 8 hours but I know patients with damage after 4 hours. The smaller the tourniquet the more likely and the faster the damage. Leave it on the least amount of time possible
thats awesome, sounds like our ct surgeons! they stay in house in the unit and do rounds on their patients all night to make sure everything is going good! they also always bring the staff fairy dust and golden coins as treats!

My thoughts exactly. And yes, I would assume the same physics apply as you simply need to create and deeper and larger surface area tourniquet to allow the blood from deep veins to pool into the more superficial ones.

Thank you Dr Hadzic, love your videos! We usually use SC Lidocaine to numb the skin before poking. I personally hate when my attending while trying to help me puts a tourniquet above the elbow when we always aim at dorsal hand veins. That’s NOT how you do it! Anesthesiologists unfortunately are not taught proper techniques as nurses are. You have to apply the most of the pressure as close to the puncture site as possible. So I reposition the tourniquet and sure enough veins (not always but still) are more plump. Or I follow the example of another attending who asks a nurse to apply a good tight squeeze just above the patient’s wrist and it brings the veins up nicely. This is the only way actually how we do it in Peds in our institution. Plus we have hand held GE ultrasounds, helps to hide from an irritated surgeon… who has to wait anyway, yep, life is hard for them at times. ;P

Have you outfitted your organization with these style constricting bandages?
do you guys carry the esmarch on your ambo? im trying to think of anything my service has that would be similar and im drawing a blank
@@rachelgrace4346 you can use an ace wrap in a pinch
@@rachelgrace4346 you can stop by the physical therapy department at the hospital and ask for a few feet of theraband. I'm sure they would oblige you
As an intern, to avoid difficult cannulation, apply three cotton balls with tape to both arms and get someone better to do it.
Now that’s funny!
That's cheating hawu😂
@@buyimncube2588 I think thats what some of my nurses do and then call me to start their IVs.
Negative. You have to make mistakes to improve. If anything the less experienced should be the ones called over to start an iv or get a blood sample. If you baby them and have others do their job they will never be mere than they are at that moment.
Haha i might use this technique someday 😃
I'm a recoverd 17 year I.V. heroin user. I've been hospitalized many times and I've taught a couple nurses how to hit difficult veins. I'm very good at it!
I listen to my patients because they know their bodies. Works all the time
Good luck, I’ve had addicts and my first question to them always is “Where’s your best vein, bud?” Unfortunately, inevitably it’s “I don’t know, they’re all bad now”. Damn it!
ua-cam.com/video/3krE0-hW7yI/v-deo.html💥💥
I get addicts in the ER and if they're not currently high they've all been super super nice about finding veins with me! I'm not that good yet so I usually ask for help anyway, but then at least I can tell them where to try first
When patients start talking about which veins are good ones I know they are either a nurse or have a history of iv drug abuse.
I just shared this on my phone with a prep op nurse in between my cases. When I returned to retrieve my phone, I see that she is sharing the video with 3 other nurses. I am sure all the preop nurses in our hospital will know this technique . Thanks for sharing the great video and knowledge.

I used to work in pre-op holding. Started a lot of IVs. Used BP cuff, warm blankets & hung arm down for gravity assist when faced with a difficult start. Some veins are just difficult to access despite your best efforts.
Yes. Some are a hardstick but the vast majority of issues is the result of the dumbass hospital keeping it stupid cold. When they pull their heads out of their ass then starting IVs won't ever be an issue but there will always be a few patients that their veins are too small for the gauge or their veins roll but generally speaking if the dumbasses turn the temp up that solves the problem because it will allow the veins to deconstrict.

As a Paramedic I want to add in that veins don't wiggle, roll, run away, etc. Can they spasm or be moved/pushed by a needle before it punctures the vein? Yes...
Is there anything we as providers can do about these issues? ABSOLUTELY!
Holding traction on a vein, preferably at 3 points (2 minimum, above & below the insertion point) and keeping that traction until the cannula has been fully inserted typically makes the difference between a successful attempt or having to stick a patient again.
Also, PRACTICE! In the beginning it doesn't even need to be practice sticking, but take your tourniquet home and practice finding/feeling the veins of anyone that will allow you to try! If you learn what veins feel like (that soft, sponge like, slightly bouncy feel - everyone explains it differently) plus learn to feel for valves, bifurcations, etc. You'll be much better prepared for whatever situations you may come across. Some of the best veins can be felt but are not particularly visible!
This video is great! While it's "low-tech" that's exactly the type of continued learning & teaching we should all be doing because it's accessible most anywhere at anytime!
People in healthcare are dumbasses these days. All it takes is don't keep the stupid hospital so cold and you won't have any issues. It's an easy fix problem.

I decided to watch this after a hospital visit to the VA hospital. The nurse was trying to draw blood and put an IV in me. She was unsuccessful in my left arm several times. It started to hurt after the 4rth unsuccessful poke and I told her to stop and just do the right arm. It took another unsuccessful poke and another nurse to get the job done. I wish the first nurse would watch this because she didn't even care about keeping the patient warm. I was shivering and maybe that could of helped her draw blood easier along with this method.
Thanks for sharing Jorge.
Bravo doktore, nema, sto Balkanac smisli ne može niko. Svaka čast 👍
I used to be a patient care assistant and ever time no one could draw blood on the patient, I have my own technique for Pre-Op patients for difficult veins. I used to used almost the same technique or sometimes a double torniquetes. Whatever works and whatever gives you the best option for you to succeed.
This was outstanding, Now that I'm Nursing school I will definitely use this video again and show to my classmates when is time to do IV drawn.

As someone who very much dislikes no is tormented by the thoughts of IV and any needles because I was on dialysis for almost 11 years. I was diagnosed with systemic lupus nephritis which completely ruined both of my kidneys and overall health. I had both arms destroyed by procedures in which they tried to get fistulas and or grafts. I remember when they did this green light to track my veins which made it a lot easier to find it and get an IV or draw blood. I have been poked by different people for years and I always tell them to please use a butterfly needle. I have had some less compassionate people one who told me that I should stop being scared and he poked me digging .I yelled at him to stop because he was hurting me. He called me a big baby and started laughing at me. I wish they would implement this every where especially for people who have trouble like myself. It would definitely help ease the anxiety of the over poking.

I am very difficult to find. My veins are very small and tend to slip aside at attempts to venipuncture. I am considering purchasing my own Esmarch strap and bring it with me. I can "coach" the people on how to apply it on me. It beats a venous cutdown!
This is a great video. In addition, I would also suggest that the staff gently "prevent" the vein from sliding away from the needle during placement. This can be done by putting another finger just proximal to the insertion point over the vein to "hold it down."
A "sliding target" is always harder to get.

To Harold Marks: Spinals work well for uncomplicated hip procedures lasting 2 hours or less (the duration that a spinal works). If it is a complicated surgery lasting longer than two hours a spinal is not a good choice in any circumstance.
@@RR-ge9ds who did not know that! You are preaching to the pope.
I'm just a patient but find this very interesting especially after so many failed attempts, over many years, at cannulation. My worst was just yesterday when the cannulator at my CT scan said the vein had “popped”. He didn’t say, ‘I’ve popped the vein.’ Apparently I have visible but fragile veins - something which no one has ever stated before. More training should be given to medical staff who perform this task.
Excellent video.

Now everyone goes for ACF, ruining other sites. So when I worked in OR-many times anesthesia would say “ do you mind” -of course not. Team efforts. Like you lowering angle is very important as well as direct( above vein) or indirect ( where a bifurcation might occur. Many forget about basilic vein , standing behind patient. Please do not misconstrue with egoism. It is a valuable skill set. Everything from 16 ga-30ga. Esmarch is great idea. Great video

Thanks for this, an interesting use of the Esmarch bandage, and I might well give this a try next time there are surgeons pacing up and down peering through the window of the anaesthetic room as I'm onto my sixth cannulation attempt...! Just to flag up, in your second case study the patient's face is briefly visible (alebit under a FRSM) whereas all the other participants' faces are blurred out - not sure if that was deliberate as the patient didn't mind, but thought you'd like to know. Keep up the good work, this is a great video.
Thank you! All patients signed consent for recording video and sharing for teaching purposes. Regardless, showing participants' faces is not necessary, and we are very grateful that just about all our subjects are happy to contribute to the education. Our postproduction staff does their best to blurr and de-identify, but a sharp eye always detects an omission or two. Thank you again and best regards.

Very informative. I'll try using a ace bandage in worst case scenario. Dealing with CKD, low EF's and fluid overload can be challenging to draw labs or insert new IVs

I have really terrible veins and am on IVIG so I will definitely save this video in case we have trouble with my veins again in 2 weeks. I have had to cancel my treatments before becUse we couldn't hit a vein.
Wow I’m impressed!! I had surgery last week and the Anaesthetist couldn’t get a cannula in. I did warn him in advance that he would have problems. This is a problem I have whenever I have surgery, in the past I’ve had two Anaesthetists try and get a cannula in and I ended up with a cannula just over my outer wrist bone which was very painful when the Anaesthetic went in.
I used to be sedated for dental treatment and the anaesthetist there could never get a cannula in either, so he had to put me to sleep with gas.
I was told by the Anaesthetist last week that if he couldn’t get a line in that he would have to get the ultrasound machine in to locate a vein. On his first attempt he told me he had popped a vein in my hand and it looks all bruised now, but fading, he managed to get a line in on his second attempt on my left forearm on the inside. A few days before surgery I had to have routine blood tests and the nurses struggled to draw blood, it took 2 nurses several attempts and several needles later they managed to get one vial of blood. I’ve had 26 surgeries now and it always seems to be a problem.
I’ve had Phlebotomists take blood and can do it first time!!! Maybe they should be anaesthetists??!!!!! Lol
Drawing blood is much easier than placing an IV.
Rarely is it difficult to actually puncture a vein to obtain blood, the complicating factor with an IV is poking it just deep enough without going through the backside of the vein to allow the IV catheter to carefully slide into it… without slipping out during insertion
- as an ex-phlebotomist, now an anesthesiologist
@@timdunagan8230 really, you must be super good at it then. I’m having a bad time atm as I need dental treatment and I’m local anesthetic resistant . So have to wait 18 months to see a dentist that can sedate me! Meanwhile I’m in pain!!! No fun at all!!

Videos like these are great for paramedics cause we just simply don't have ultrasound or vein finder available to us (in most systems anyways). Thank you for sharing this. I'd never seen the technique of actually bending the needle before
Glad you like them! Greetings to you and all your colleagues from NYSORA!
Your videos helped my alot. And gives me confidence to try iv replacement ☺️ . As It is the most important thing in any health care facility
Thank you Dreamer! Glad you like the video. Thank you for watching. Do subscribe to this channel and share with your colleagues; a lot more videos are coming up - let's share our clinical experience! Cheers!
Even if it has nothing to do with you, it is an anesthesia delay. Truer words were never spoken.
As a pediatric nurse who works exclusively on a vascular access (IV team) I would never recommend placing IV’s in someone’s wrist like that. There are many nerves in that area and the risk for permanent nerve damage is very high. Please be mindful.
Hi Cactus Flower! Point well taken. Thank you for sharing. Indeed where venous access is available elsewhere it's preferable. However, superficial location of these nerves in expert hands and with small IV catheters can be used with relatively little risk. Greetings to you and your colleagues!!
That is very true. My nerves got permanenntly damaged during an insuccessful cannulation. The nurse was going way too deep in the in the antecubital vein and then she shot the saline solution in my arm multiple times despite not being in the vein. I was screaming in agony. In the end she got mad and started cursing and left me there on the bed without anything on my arm. Needless to say, there was obviously bloos everywhere. Then another nurse came and she said let's just draw blood and do exams and if she needs to stay in, then we will try again with the iv. Anyway, after that i went home because the results were okay. But my arm was so swollen for weeks. I didn't develop a bruise because she was who knows where but not in the vein. But after that i had severe tussue inflamation, i had to use a cream and my nerves never healed.To this day, if i touch a particular spot on my forearm it tingles and starts to slightly hurt.
Great, I will use it in the next patient with poor veins👍

The blood pressure cuff allows greater control over pressure applied. I use the BP cuff exclusively. It is also very helpful when the walls of the vein are thin and applying too much pressure causes them to burst.
Good point!

The best technique to succeed is... to have no other choice but succeeding. I've never been the best at "canulation" through my GP residency. But when I was alone at the 3am taking care of a pregnant woman in septic shock because of pyelonephritis I succeeded an arterial blood puncture first try (for blood gas analysis) in the ulnar artery... only to realise 10 mins later that I accidentaly chose the ulnar artery instead of the radial one. And her blood pressure was something like 60/30 mmhg.
It was such a powerfull moment. It needed to be done, I had no other choice... Boom. Done.
I used to suck at arterial blood punctures, still do under normal circumstances though.
Well said! There really is something powerful about moments like these, when you're put to the test and have no choice but to make it happen. Kudos for making sure your patient had the best possible care, and best wishes from all of us at NYSORA.
So cool. That is defo a must to be taught in schools

I like this ace bandage idea for vasculature that just won't inflate, particularly the elderly or those in shock.
We shouldn't have to bend the needle (risking fissures or separation from base) if the angle of entry starts parallel to the skin, then 10 degrees down. Most errors I've seen is a 45 degree entry that goes right through an oval shaped vessel. When I had surgery, there were four attempts to start my IV while I watched that 45 degree angle push into my hand. The anxiety level of the staff was escalating, and I was worried he would ruin all access points with bad technique, so I said calmly, "I draw blood all the time, so let me talk you through it. The blood vessel is just under the skin, barely 1/8 of an inch, for lean people like myself, and variably deeper for obese, but not so deep it's in muscle. First, when you pull the skin taut, don't put your thumb over the vessel feeding your access site because even with the tourniquet, you're inadvertently shutting off the flow to the vein with your thumb. Instead, pull the skin from either side of the feeding vein. Next, when you push the needle down on it, the blood vessel will go from round to slightly oval because it's pliable. If your angle is too steep you'll pass right through the vessel to the other side. Come in shallow until you get a flash, then level out." To his immense relief (and mine), he got it during the tutorial and I was wheeled away to la-la land.
You did mean to say start parallel then go 10 degrees? We were taught 10-15 to start then level out once in. I love your explanation!

Great tip to help with IV access. I will definitely be trying this. One criticism however, your colleague appears to be placing a Bair Hugger hose under the blanket without the use of a warming blanket, commonly referred to as "hosing" the patient. This has led to burns and should be avoided.
Agreed. Ideally, it would be a forced-air device into a specialized full-body warming blanket. Unfortunately, this would be impractical and time prohibitive in many of our fast-paced OR cases where patients are fully awake and able to advise on too much or too little heat. Thank you for the comment and do the Reverse Esmarch. We have been releasing also some low-tech clinical pearls. I am personally always surprised to learn that trainees and practitioners have seen or heard of these. Best
This patient is awake for IV placement and would be able to verbally tell the staff if he became too hot. On an anesthetized patient I agree with you. But he is suggesting this for IV placement alone so they can induce the patient. In this circumstance I don’t see it as a problem.
@@Love-ql7rd k...but non verbal, un responsive and the intellectually disabled also get surgery when it's required.

Heck! I wish one was used on me! I eventually had a PICC line put in and got a Massive infection in 2 days later. My temp was 103° for at least a week before I was admitted. Besides the fever, the chills were excruciatingly painful. I hope never to be that sick again.
IV certified, great series. Some require indirect approach or directly at bifurcation. They blame anesthesia, when they never are properly tra, always use ACF

I do CT scans, some times they are very difficult because the great amount of contrast that we use in a very short time, and the veins must be enought big to this propose. And with oncology pacients is the worst because the chemiotherapy debilits the veins. I will try with my coworkers this metod. Thanks
For real I do mri scan. These patient will literally complained about how “they just did their lab work and it was easy and quick “. And I’m like drawing blood and injecting contrast in the veins are not the same smh. If the that veins ain’t strong enough for the contrast it will blow .

This is good for the OR but in the ER most patients will refuse an iv placement at the inside of the wrist. Also not very useful to get large bore IV's in the ac which are preferred for emergencies
I was thinking the same. I’m a new grad working in the ER. We usually stick to the AC, forearm or hand. Wrist is a last resort. I’m trying to find videos that can help me because I’m awful at IV sticks unless the patient has excellent veins.
Any IV is better than no IV. I think your comment is ill informed.

Hvala Dr Hadžić, odličan video! Puno pozdrava!!!
Pozdrav!
Thank you for sharing your amazing techniques and knowledge! I had a question regarding how long a tourniquet can stay on. What is the guideline? I notice you say it is okay and recommended to leave it on to allow the veins to fill, but are there any dangers of leaving it on too long? I have heard 1 minute MAX and 5 minutes you start to run into issues. Thank you.
Emergency textbooks sat tourniquet damage typically happens after 8 hours but I know patients with damage after 4 hours. The smaller the tourniquet the more likely and the faster the damage. Leave it on the least amount of time possible
what is the name of this vein that inserted the cannula?
thank you for sharing this vedio it is really useful
Going to try it with my next difficult cannula

lol, is this a joke? and i have no problem waiting for a med student to close a ventral hernia repair....
thats awesome, sounds like our ct surgeons! they stay in house in the unit and do rounds on their patients all night to make sure everything is going good! they also always bring the staff fairy dust and golden coins as treats!

Any tips for pediatric cannulation
Would moderately wide ace wrap be a suitable alternative?
My thoughts exactly. And yes, I would assume the same physics apply as you simply need to create and deeper and larger surface area tourniquet to allow the blood from deep veins to pool into the more superficial ones.
Wonderful technique, however that particular elastic bandage is rare here in East Africa. 😫😫
Thus is quite common in orthopedic settings, you can definitely find it, even in LMIC countries
Use an ACE bandage.
Is an ace sufficient?
You can even use a long sleeve t shirt- worst case scenario- because it still works... just keep the idea change the tool
Maybe a foam bandage would work too

Can I improvise that elastic cloth with crape bandage
Would this technique work for AC access? Worked in multiple hospital ERs were CT requires a minimum 20g AC access for a CTA exam. Assuming you roll down bandage above AC, this technique should work with the most difficult patients?
Get access below the ac and run some fluids slowly with a tourniquet on the upper arm....

Thank you Dr Hadzic, love your videos! We usually use SC Lidocaine to numb the skin before poking. I personally hate when my attending while trying to help me puts a tourniquet above the elbow when we always aim at dorsal hand veins. That’s NOT how you do it! Anesthesiologists unfortunately are not taught proper techniques as nurses are. You have to apply the most of the pressure as close to the puncture site as possible. So I reposition the tourniquet and sure enough veins (not always but still) are more plump. Or I follow the example of another attending who asks a nurse to apply a good tight squeeze just above the patient’s wrist and it brings the veins up nicely. This is the only way actually how we do it in Peds in our institution. Plus we have hand held GE ultrasounds, helps to hide from an irritated surgeon… who has to wait anyway, yep, life is hard for them at times. ;P
