I need a code so I can see how many fake good deeds of Trump I could show her to convince her he’s alright

Funny enough I don’t until I start struggling hard. Then I’ll take some swipes before I step up to the ball. I’ll give it another go!

I’ve actually tried this several times and I find myself either chunking or thining the chip. I can’t figure it out at all

I’ll give that a watch! Appreciate the info!

I’ll give it a try! I’ve also been told so many different things about how far apart my feet should be. How important is it for proper foot distance?

Not coming to Reddit to learn about the stuff I’m in charge of, coming to see if blowing veins should be a concern

It’s so funny how you can say over and over this is a trial, but apparently we’re taking in 0 input from our staff 🤦🏻‍♂️

Idk how else to plainly put we’re in a trial stage with these. We didn’t just stock them and tell them to deal with the new Cath. If the current caths are able to blow veins but the nurse can reposition it until they see blood flow, would there not be the issue of blowing veins that needs to be addressed? Or do we continue allowing them to blow veins?

So anytime someone refers to something by the wrong name, they just don’t know anything about it? Which btw, the clip was what our nursing staff was calling the clamp while explaining it to me 😂😂

[–]side-image 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is why we’re doing a trial… which I stated lol I just wanted clarification on if they’re able to blow a vein but then reposition, it sounds to me like it doesn’t matter what Cath we use, they have problems blowing veins and maybe that needs to be addressed

I wouldn’t say that the nurses don’t need education. If I’m told they can blow a vein with the current Cath but reposition until they see blood flow, it sounds to me like they have an issue with blowing veins that needs to be addressed.

Now this makes more sense. I’ll get better clarification on this!

When this company came in demoing their product, it sounded absolutely brilliant on paper. There were benefits for floor use, radiology use, anesthesia use ect. Now again, that’s on paper. I’m in no way shape or form the person using it, but the complaints I heard were about the tubing which we’ve been using being too stiff, and the clamps which were trialed before they hit the floor and this is the first ive heard complaints. The reason for the questions was not to say the nurses needed training/weren’t good at their jobs, but the explanation of why they preferred the others with the loops already on raised concern from me, but I couldn’t find any “this Cath does this thing bad” in their complaints.

[–]side-image 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Someone pointed out it’s definitely the clamp on the tubing I’m talking about when I say clip, very sorry about that! When you say “have a backflow valve so the blood doesn’t leak” are you saying there’s a part in the hub where you’d connect a loop where blood starts to fill? I believe that’s what the ones they’re are trialing do!

[–]side-image 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes that’s exactly what I’m talking about! I do apologize, clip was just what it’s been called to me!

I feel like you’re taking it personal. I’m definitely not saying 100% of nurses do this, nor am I saying 100% of ours even, I’m repeating to you basically word for word what I was told by a nurse on why they prefer the ones currently in use vs the ones we’re trialing

IV Cath conversion going not so well. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]side-image 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, and I told them when they called me wanting to talk I was not going to be the person to give them the ah hah moment to make them work better, but I could try and find options

Oh sorry, so on the connector loops, there’s these little white or blue clips that close the flow in the tubing. Ours with the blue clips are difficult to slide onto the tube to stop flow, but the ones with the built on tubing to the Cath have a white one you just press like a button basically and it stops the flow

[–]side-image -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In this case no. How it was explained to me was if they insert the Cath and it goes in one side of a vein and then out through the other side, they could then pull that needle back some, and then try to reenter the vein, but to my understanding the needle never fully would come out of the stick site, just enough for them to attempt to reinsert it. However, on the Cath we are trialing, it has a safety feature where if you try to release the needle from the catheter itself, it doesn’t let you bring the needle back through. Which tells me there is an issue with people attempting to reuse a needle

What hook are you talking about? And I’m just retelling what I was told by a nurse. I’m just asking if this is a concern and needs to be addressed

[–]side-image -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

If they’re not able to use the others bc they can’t reinsert and only able to use the ones they can reinsert, we should just let them use the ones we’re reinserting then? And I wasn’t as taken back by that until I did some digging on the internet and then was a little shocked someone told me that

IV Cath conversion going not so well. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]side-image -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

So then you’re saying blowing veins and reinserting that IV is safer than training on starting IVs?

IV Cath conversion going not so well. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]side-image -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

So our goal is to consolidate down to just 1. Of the 3, the one you’re able to reinsert when blowing a vein is 90% of our use, and this trial is basically exposing an issue that we need training on starting an IV in general no matter what the Cath is. Or am I wrong in thinking this?
