I'm an ICU RN and PACU RN and ever since I watched your videos, my PIV insertion success rate has increased to a 95% 1st attempt success rate. Bending the IV and taking time for the tourniquet to work is the key. I went from primarily using 20g ivs to 18g ivs. As well I placed my 1st 16g IV in a septic patient all because of your techniques. Thank you so much.

I am also PACU RN

ER RN/Paramedic here- I've used a manual blood pressure cuff, pumped up just above the diastolic reading to really get the distal vein engorgement in very difficult IV starts. The one bad thing about that- if you hit the vein but are unable to cannulate it, you will have a more impressive hematoma to deal with.

I self cannulate to treat my depression, and I also use a manual BP cuff, it's so much easier than applying a tourniquet, and gives me much more control. I've only had a hematoma a few times in the past 3 years, mainly from pushing the needle too slow, which pricks the vein, but doesn't plug it with the cannula. Or from pushing too far and exiting the bottom of the vein. The tip to leave the cannula in, after a failed attempt, that helps excess blood to leak out, preventing hematoma. There's been so great tips on this channel.

I am a military nurse and have worked in Anesthesia and ambulances. An important method to get peripheral veins a vue is to use heat packs. Especially in an outdoor, prehospital setting or in an A&E setting with elderly patients with insufficient peripheral perfusion. I am going to give the Esmarch a try, though! (Oh, and bending needles: I have been taught to do that for IV insertion, but also for local analgesia in small procedures)

Greetings from Germany! Some weeks ago we got an 90 yo woman in the ER who felt down the stairs and laid there for some hours. She had massive decollement wounds on both hands and forearms and her head. External jugular access was no option due to the high insertion angle from a prominent mandibula and skinny neck. So I bent a short 18G to cannulate 1st a tibial leg vein and 2nd at her shoulder as seen in your videos. Your advice was great! :) btw: bending needles is common practice here too.

Thank you

A couple of comments. Excellent video and series. The Esmarch technique is a great idea. I'd like to add another technique which I have incorporated for a long time. This is to use forced-air warming to make sure the patient is warm and perfusing their distal extremities. Distal limb blood flow varies greatly depending on a variety of factors - anxiety and hypovolemia of course, but thermoregulatory state is as important, if not more so. Forced-air warming of the entire patient for about 20 minutes can make a huge difference. This is much more effective than just warming the arm or hand. When I've been called to place an IV on a patient on the ward, the first thing I do is feel the temperature of their hands while looking for veins. If the hands are cold, 20 minutes of "Bair Hugger" will make all the difference. BTW, I bend the needle all the time too. I would disagree with the idea of "inserting the needle quickly". One gives up tactile feedback and unless you are incredibly accurate every time, there may not be enough time to see blood return before puncturing the other side of the vein. Do veins actually "roll"? I don't think so.

I also think that rolling is intuitively wrong, the likely hood that a thin walled vein would resist the penetrative force of the Needle 💉 seems unlikely. Unless there’s been statis leading to hypertrophy or significant blunting upon entry or previous IV access leading to some sclerotic changes to which the vein is moving with.

Just wanted to say thanks again for that "bend the needle" trick. I had to put an IV in a distal tibial vein today, and couldn't get the angle right even with the patient plantarflexing her foot. A little curve in the needle gave me the extra 5° I needed for a successful insertion.

Thank you very much for your advice. I will apply them as soon as I have the opportunity. However, in older patients with very fragile veins, I prefer not to use a tourniquet. I just press firmly on the vein with my index finger, wait for its volume to increase, and a few centimeters lower I insert the catheter in a quick but delicate movement. Pain and vascular damage are minimal.

I frequently utilize ultrasound-guided IV placement for patients with challenging veins. In fact, I haven't missed an IV insertion in several months (not kidding). When I can't find an easily accessible vein, I rely on the ultrasound to successfully insert the IV on the first attempt, eliminating the need for multiple attempts (from other people who cant do it). My skills are widely recognized, and I am often called upon to assist with IV placements throughout the entire hospital.

I’ve had all those tricks except the needle bending is not allowed where I live. That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen. Even my EJs are scarred to the point of having 3-6 attempts on any given Tuesday. I have had 3 ports but each one has gotten septic eventually. They’re either going to have to put another one in and risk infection or put me on hospice at this point in time. I can’t get an IO because I’m a paraplegic and the hospitals in my area won’t use my legs for any kind of access. One hospital stay for 33 hours I was stuck 35 times. That’s when they finally decided to go the port route.

I'm baffled that medical staff don't know that if you raise the hand the blood volume in the veins goes down, so the natural remedy to thin veins is to have the hand pointed to the floor, just let it hang and only then use a band above the insertion site. Blood pools due to gravity, use it to your advantage.

Just use the jagular

I’ve had bad veins my entire life and I can’t say enough about the vein finder. I have tiny fragile veins. I learned to use breathing techniques to not panic because of a life time of trauma.

They have to try, most places have a protocol that you try twice and then ask for help. Like you said if you have tiny fragile veins it’s going to be difficult, there’s no way around it. Some people are hard sticks and some aren’t and some days your veins are super cooperative and some days they aren’t. Our anatomies are nuanced, we’re not robots.

For me, its use my mediport or give me an I.O.

@@germanshepparddogsandthenu5653 I'm saying if i inserted a cannula then after it closed by a clot i want to get blood samples and pt's veins are very bad also his arterial sites have hematoma and there is no CVC inserted could the peripheral cannula work as CVC in blood sampling

I have no veins its scary what will happen when I get old

Sorry, “S mark?” What’s that? I’ve never heard of it or seen one 😮
