How to insert difficult IV or draw blood sample in patients with difficult veins: Best technique
Intravenous access
There are several different methods to facilitate an IV line placement in patients with difficult peripheral IV access. Of course, you can use ultrasound to find and cannulate a vein in a difficult patient, but this requires a considerable amount of skill, equipment, and TIME. And frankly, you would not make the surgeons happy by wheeling in an ultrasound machine when the case is already delayed. In this video, Dr. Hadzic teaches his street-smart, a surprisingly little-known technique, that is much simple and faster than ultrasound.

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 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!

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.

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 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.
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.

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.
After watching this video I cannulated all difficult paediatric cases. Thank you for this video. So helpful.

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.

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.

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.

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.
Thank you, Its a great video and great timely presentation

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

Hi Ishita! Thank you! Your comments are much appreciated!
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

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.

Even if it has nothing to do with you, it is an anesthesia delay. Truer words were never spoken.
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 .

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.

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.

Without IV access patient can't safely be kept alive during theatre. No surgeon could ever tell me to hurry up when I'm responsible for the patient's life. Maybe it's different in the UK but here the surgeons ask us if they can start operating and can't if we aren't happy. If we take long in the anaesthetic room so be it.
Very practical and Informative

I am sure you meant … above the Diastolic pressure - if it’s below the “diastolic” [as you say 2:37] then the blood will flow out as well as in and hence nothing to cause congestion and distension of the veins which is what you want.
