    Excelent ideas. I like the locating a "landmark" on the arm where the vein is.

    Hi Miss K! I’ve been following you for two months and a half now and you really help me with passing my CCMA with a 410, but I was wondering if you can put out a NHA CPT/phlebotomy study session or live because I will be taking my exam October 20. You provided tons of information and explanation for the medical assistance practice videos. It will really help if you can do the same for phlebotomy.

      Awesome!! Congratulations on passing your CCMA 🎉 unfortunately, I do not have access to the CPT study material. The only study material I have access to is CCMA and CMAA and I will begin to start doing those study videos soon when I get the updated materials.

    Once you can feel the vein, how to determine the direction of the vein to angle your needle? This is where I often get stuck.

      The needle follows the vein as you draw wherever the vein goes you go the same in a 30 degree angle or less with drawing blood you can also study vein locations

      Don’t worry because even if you miss and hit someone’s nerve-which happened to me-there is nothing the patient will be able to do about it and the police will arrest the patient before they can ever hold you accountable for screwing up

    Do you use the cap to make the circle before or after you clean the site with the alcohol

    • @MedicalAssistingwithMsK
      @MedicalAssistingwithMsK  2 місяці тому +3

      Before I clean it… just make sure you hold the cap there for a fews secs. If you do it too quick, the mark will go away.

    One other thing you could try is, while asking patient to close their fist, ask them to put there thumb inside first & then wrap the fingers.. This will maks veins visible more!

      Awww sorry to hear. There are plenty other Phlebotomy videos on UA-cam. I hope you find one that is helpful.
