| basic iv therapy training: Vessel Health and Preservation: The Right Approach for Vascular Access Nancy L. Moureau, 2019-06-10 This Open access book offers updated and revised information on vessel health and preservation (VHP), a model concept first published in poster form in 2008 and in JVA in 2012, which has received a great deal of attention, especially in the US, UK and Australia. The book presents a model and a new way of thinking applied to vascular access and administration of intravenous treatment, and shows how establishing and maintaining a route of access to the bloodstream is essential for patients in acute care today. Until now, little thought has been given to an intentional process to guide selection, insertion and management of vascular access devices (VADs) and by default actions are based on crisis management when a quickly selected VAD fails. The book details how VHP establishes a framework or pathway model for each step of the patient experience, intentionally guiding, improving and eliminating risk when possible. The evidence points to the fact that reducing fragmentation, establishing a pathway, and teaching the process to all stakeholders reduces complications with intravenous therapy, improves efficiency and diminishes cost. As such this book appeals to bedside nurses, physicians and other health professionals. |

Intravenous cannulation is one of the most difficult skills most RNs, LVNs and EMTs will learn. If you are scared out of your mind about starting IVs, you are not alone. It is an invasive and often painful procedure that requires both skill and practice to master. Maybe you are worried about hurting your patient.

Like any skill, some will be better than others. Some will learn faster, others it will take more time. Our goal is to provide you a RAPID and EASY way to master the IV stick! Not everyone will become an expert, and that's OK. But at a minimum, we want to impart every professional with the skill and confidence to start a routine, uncomplicated IV in their patient. Whether you are a new-grad who needs the essentials or a seasoned professional looking to learn some advanced techniques, everyone can always learn something new. Basics to Advanced Techniques Over 120 pages of text, graphics and pictures Gaugeschoosing the correct gauge Basic anatomy and physiology of veins Strategies to distend veins and make them Pop Out! How to choose veins which to avoid A colorful, illustrated step-by-step guide to starting a standard IV 4 methods to threading the catheter 3 approaches to inserting the needle Guide to the 'Floating technique' Visual guide to what you are doing wrong when a vein blows Finding and avoiding valves The Y-Bifurcation Inserting IVs in the elderly Vesicant medications Assortment of tips and tricks By the end you will have not just the skills to start an IV, but the confidence to go out there and give each patient your two best shots. Example Chapter Threading the catheter At this point both the tip of the needle and the tip of the catheter are inside the vein. You will now need to thread the rest of the catheter into the vein. The catheter is fully inside the vein when only the hub sticks out. There are several different methods to advancing the catheter The Two Handed Technique 1.You have already visualized flash, lowered your angle, advanced 1-2mm and released the tourniquet. 2.Continue holding the needle in place 3.With your non-dominant hand, grasp the hub of the catheter and slide it forward into the vein 4.Slowly withdraw the needle 5.Place your thumb on the hub of the catheter to hold it in place 6.Use your index finger to press down above the site to prevent blood from spilling out The Single Handed Technique 1.You have already visualized flash, lowered your angle, advanced 1-2mm and released the tourniquet. 2.Continue holding the needle in place. 3.Use the index finger of the hand that is holding the needle to slide the catheter past the needle 4.Continue sliding the catheter until it is fully inside the vein. With the above two techniques, be careful that you are only advancing the catheter into the vein and not the needle. If the catheter is inside the vein it should be relatively easy and painless to advance it. Unlike the needle, the catheter is soft and flexible so it will be difficult to slide it in unless you are inside the vein. If the flashback was very small, you may feel resistance...

| basic iv therapy training: Intravenous Therapy for Nurses SN Nanjunde Gowda, 2008-11-01 The aim of this book is to improve the understanding of the protocols, illustrate how best technique can minimize the risk of infection and other complications during IV therapy. To achieve these aims, this book has been devised for practical use in helping and training nurses to become IV therapy practitioner as well as to benefit the patients from IV therapy whilst reducing the potential complications. My sincere thought, if the nurses (students and practitioners) and other health care personnel apply the scientific principles which are described in this book in their day-to-day IV therapy practice, and minimize the risk to the patient and provide quality care, I believe my effort of bringing out this book, in spite of many hurdles, will be giving immense satisfaction. |
| basic iv therapy training: Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Julian P. T. Higgins, Sally Green, 2008-11-24 Healthcare providers, consumers, researchers and policy makers are inundated with unmanageable amounts of information, including evidence from healthcare research. It has become impossible for all to have the time and resources to find, appraise and interpret this evidence and incorporate it into healthcare decisions. Cochrane Reviews respond to this challenge by identifying, appraising and synthesizing research-based evidence and presenting it in a standardized format, published in The Cochrane Library (www.thecochranelibrary.com). The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions contains methodological guidance for the preparation and maintenance of Cochrane intervention reviews. Written in a clear and accessible format, it is the essential manual for all those preparing, maintaining and reading Cochrane reviews. Many of the principles and methods described here are appropriate for systematic reviews applied to other types of research and to systematic reviews of interventions undertaken by others. It is hoped therefore that this book will be invaluable to all those who want to understand the role of systematic reviews, critically appraise published reviews or perform reviews themselves. |

| basic iv therapy training: Intravenous Infusion Therapy for Medical Assistants Dianne L. Josephson, Nina Beaman, 2006 This essential publication focuses on what the CMA needs to know about intravenous infusion therapy. Infusion or IV therapy has long been part of the acute care of patients. However, more patients are receiving IV therapy at home, in emergency centers, at infusion centers, and in dialysis clinics.

Focusing on problem-based learning (PBL) as a teaching method will help you train EMTs to be field ready when they complete their course work and certification. This Instructor s Manual gets you started by introducing you to the PBL methodology and offering strategies for incorporating cases and discussion in the classroom. Students educated with the PBL approach have a better working knowledge of EMS and should have an improved ability to problem-solve, using all available resources, while in the field. In short, they will have the necessary tools to be competent, entry-level EMTs. |
