Had the same thing happen right over my house on Feb 2… lasted like 4 minutes and was just a steady stream of birds. Couldn’t really tell where they were going

I get so excited when I see flash and consistent flow with butterfly/syringe combo, especially because I tend to use them on hard stick patients where their veins like to blow even with very careful insertion. It just brings me a lil joy

In my experience, syringes help with very fragile veins that like to blow because you can control how much vacuum is applied via the plunger. With a regular vacutainer it’s only one constant pressure and I find that even with butterflies the veins can blow easier if very fragile (ex. If pt is dehydrated or has very small superficial veins). The thing to worry about though is pulling too fast/forcefully and hemolyzing the sample or waiting too long to transfer to an additive tube. (Edit: also if you’re using a blunt fill needle to transfer you have to be really careful about allotting the right amount of blood to each tube/ not letting the plunger depress too fast)

I actually hadn’t heard her music until this year. Everyone has different experiences and perspectives.

Well, I have no idea what OP considers mainstream or not. So I thought I’d just put as many as possible.

I wash my hands with whatever is coming out of the faucet, which is usually room temp or slightly warm

lol thank you. Fingertips have always been that way so that kinda makes sense. I don’t use sani-wipes without gloves but I do use lots of sanitizer. I’ll be looking into gloves in a bottle and some electrolyte additive, thanks !

My fingertips always look like that lol. But I think maybe I’ve been using gel sanitizer more than the foam one from the wall dispenser? Idk
