Magnet behind nurses station?
Good evening, my professor said that most healthcare facilities have some sort of magnet either behind the nurses station or over the medication room door... she wanted me to look up the meaning of it for tomorrow but the only thing I can find is that it relates to a facility being magnet status... I feel that is not the answer however. Can someone help me please.

If a dialysis catheter is inserted into a large vein like the superior vena cava, it obviously will have to travel through a smaller vein first such as the jugulag vein, so when it gets into the larger vein there will be extra space on the sides of the catheter for blood to sneak through? Is there a balloon or whatever that inflates to create a tight seal?

I know there's a recommendation to not use for more than 48 hours at a time but many other people I know who work in ICU's and such said that they will use it for weeks at another. Also, other sources said it can be used for extended periods of time if the benefits outweigh the risks. What is your take?
