It is an invasive and often painful procedure that requires both skill and practice to master.Maybe you are worried about hurting your patient.

In depth review of the following:Basics to Advanced TechniquesOver 120 pages of text, graphics and picturesGauges—choosing the correct gaugeBasic anatomy and physiology of veinsStrategies to distend veins and make them Pop Out!How to choose veins which to avoidA colorful, illustrated step-by-step guide to starting a standard IV4 methods to threading the catheter3 approaches to inserting the needleGuide to the “Floating technique”Visual guide to what you are doing wrong when a vein blowsFinding and avoiding valvesThe Y-BifurcationInserting IVs in the elderlyVesicant medicationsAssortment of tips and tricksBy the end you will have not just the skills to start an IV, but the confidence to go out there and give each patient your two best shots. Example ChapterThreading the catheterAt this point both the tip of the needle and the tip of the catheter are inside the vein. You will now need to thread the rest of the catheter into the vein. The catheter is fully inside the vein when only the hub sticks out. There are several different methods to advancing the catheter The Two Handed TechniqueYou have already visualized flash, lowered your angle, advanced 1-2mm and released the tourniquet.Continue holding the needle in placeWith your non-dominant hand, grasp the hub of the catheter and slide it forward into the veinSlowly withdraw the needlePlace your thumb on the hub of the catheter to hold it in placeUse your index finger to press down above the site to prevent blood from spilling out The Single Handed Technique You have already visualized flash, lowered your angle, advanced 1-2mm and released the tourniquet.Continue holding the needle in place.Use the index finger of the hand that is holding the needle to slide the catheter past the needleContinue sliding the catheter until it is fully inside the vein. With the above two techniques, be careful that you are only advancing the catheter into the vein and not the needle. If the catheter is inside the vein it should be relatively easy and painless to advance it. Unlike the needle, the catheter is soft and flexible so it will be difficult to slide it in unless you are inside the vein. If the flashback was very small, you may feel resistance... Read more

Great Resource for Nurses, MDs, and RRTs:Arterial blood gases (or ABGs) are some of the more difficult lab tests to understand in all of medicine. Sure, there are normal results given along with the test values, but it doesn't end there. What does a certain pH in the blood mean? Where does the bicarbonate level come from? These components, along with other values, need to be understood so you can interpret them. Basically, the ABGs are a test of the arterial blood that check the oxygen levels, the carbon dioxide levels, the acidity (or pH) of the blood, the oxyhemoglobin saturation, and the bicarbonate. If you have a fancy blood gas analyzer, you can get a methemoglobin level, a carboxyhemoglobin level, and sometimes just a hemoglobin level. Each of these lab tests reveal crucial values that are important in caring for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and other hospital settings. If you do not know what oxyhemoglobin saturation means (or any of these values), never fear! By the time you finish this guide, you will be an old pro! In this book, you will learn: The Science of Arterial Blood GasespH, Buffers, and the Kidneys Normal ABG ValuesSimple Acid-Base Disorders Deep dive into understanding ABGs in the Clinical Sense ABG Collection and Sources of Error Helpful study tools we recommendPractice Questions / Case StudiesGet Yours Today by Scrolling Up & Ordering Now!

"Trauma Junkie gives us a view over the flight nurse's shoulder from liftoff until the patient is delivered to the hospital and the agonizing minutes in between. These fascinating true stories are impossible to put down." -- James M. Betts, MD, Chief of Department of Surgery and Director of Trauma Services, Children's Hospital, Oakland"An exciting portrayal of emergency nursing." -- Library Journal"Fast-paced nonfiction that reads like an adventure story." -- School Library JournalIn Trauma Junkie, readers accompany veteran flight nurse Janice Hudson as she races in response to emergency calls in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her workplace is a cramped California Shock Trauma Air Rescue (CALSTAR) helicopter in which medical personnel try to fix the human carnage wrought by shootings, accidents and natural disasters.In this new and expanded edition, Hudson updates readers on how she and her colleagues have fared since moving on to different medical roles -- including her own battle with multiple sclerosis, which ultimately forced her to give up the job she loved.The new Trauma Junkie also contains several previously unpublished stories, including a new addition to the lineup of "stupid human tricks" Hudson witnessed and an all-new chapter describing a call involving the most heartbreaking of patients: a child who didn't make it.Hudson is a natural storyteller who conveys the excitement of her days with calstar -- heroic rescues, tragic deaths and the hilarious incidents that made the tension bearable -- and the deep commitment of her team to keep patients alive in the most perilous situations.

**This second edition version includes full color graphics and descriptions**If you’re reading this, chances are your current or future role involves rapid cardiac rhythm interpretation. This can be one of the most challenging topics for students to learn. Of course, I am partially biased in that this text is presented from the nurse’s perspective however, it is my hope that this text will provide great benefit to nursing students, new nurses, cardiac monitor technicians, paramedic students, and medical students alike!My goal is to provide you with the most amount of information in as few words possible (hence the graphics). They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If you wanted to read for the sake of reading you would have picked up a copy of War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy.My hope is that you can use the pictures presented as a quick reference if you need a topic refresher once you complete the reading. For this reason, each topic is presented in the following format:What is it?What does this mean?Why should we care?TAKE HOME POINTS: These are presented after each topic. Think of them as a, “What do I need to know about this topic if I only have 10 seconds to review this page?” type of review.As you read, take special care to appreciate the underlying conceptfor each rhythm strip instead of just memorizing waveform appearances. This will help to make sense of whythe waveforms appear the way that they do. Remember that each rhythm strip tells a storyof what’s happening behind the scenes (at the micro and macro cellular level). We’re simply observing a 30,000 foot view of what’s occurring beneath our electrodes. Read more
