Hi all, does anyone have tips on starting IVs in the hand? At my new job they like IVs in the hand for certain procedures. In the hospital I worked they didn't like us to put IVs in the hands because of the nerve endings/pain and they usually didn't last long. One PICC nurse would be SO mad if she saw a hand or wrist IV. So, I am confident with forearm and AC IVs as long as it's not a super hard stick, but hands scare me! All I can see is use a lower angle, almost flush to the skin (like 5 degrees?) and stabilize well. Thanks for any advice!
