    Hold'emRN replied to ExCorporateRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  20. IV Starts

    Hold'emRN replied to ashleyjean3's topic in General Nursing

    Once you see flash back, make sure to advance the needle some more into the vein. Then slide the catheter over the needle. Most people stop when they see flashback and try to advance it too
