How to start a peripheral IV in the dorsum of the hand: clinical nursing skill technique. Starting an IV (intravenous catheter) can be an intimidating experience for nurses, especially nursing students and new nurses. However, nurses will perform IV insertions often, so this is an important nursing skill to learn. UPDATE: Newer guidelines recommend using a back-and-forth friction scrub for cleansing prior to insertion, rather than an inside-to-outside circular motion. Before starting an IV, always follow the protocols of your facility, as well as manufacturer's instructions for any supplies used. In this video, Nurse Sarah demonstrates how to start a peripheral IV in the dorsum of the hand. Prior to inserting the IV, you'll want to do the following: -Gather supplies -Perform hand hygiene -Prepare supplies (including priming the saline flush, removing air from extension tubing, opening packages, completing labels, and any other steps required by your facility. -Locate a suitable vein -Perform hand hygiene -Don gloves If the patient has a lot of hair, you might want to use clippers to trim the hairs prior to starting the IV. You may also apply a tourniquet to help veins move near the surface of the skin. Next, you'll want to clean the site using the cleaner that came in the IV start kit, such as ChloraPrep. Once the site has dried completely, you can insert the IV. Stabilize the vein with your non-dominant hand, and insert the IV's needle into the vein, watching carefully for blood return (or a blood flash) in the chamber. Advance the IV around 2mm more to ensure the plastic cannula is in the vein, then thread the cannula into the vein and press the needle safety button. Notes: https://www.registerednursern.com/how...
