was told to remove ivpb and flush line iv. I forgot to swab the port almost forgot to get air bubbles out of syringe actually had to unscrew from port and expel air. then I flushed iv no immediate problem with it or problems a little while later when I went to check on them. but I have been worry how likely is the patient to get an infection from it, if they do will they die, will I get kicked out of nursing school for forgetting to be prepared, will I get sued

I was asked to discontinue an ivpb and then flush the iv. I forgot to use swab the port I had a prefilled syringe and before I got ready to flush it I realized that I needed to get the bubbles out so I unscrewed it and got them out. I flushed the iv nothing appeared to be wrong. I now know to be prepared when I go into a patient's room, but I am worried how likely it would be for that person to get an infection, when they die from it and will I get kicked out of the nursing program or be sued.
