wow...and i thought dental assistants using one another's mouths for injection practice was amazingly freaky...i think i want these guys @ my next spinal tap...
i was wondering if theres a contraindication, say a burn to the chest, 1st degree, and bilateral amputations to the legs and arms, would the juglar vein be the next option for starting fluids?
The only contraindications I am aware of it there is obvious trauma to the sternum, or previous scar tissue there suggesting trauma. It is mainly used when you are unable to obtain intravenous access in the arms or legs. You could do an EJ stick if this failed.
OK i did it when i had my fimal traing last week and got yelled at, and was told that the Pt would just be considered expectant. but my thig is if it could save the pts. life then do an ej
it is a "fast1". it is used when an IV can't be started. it sticks a needle into to your supersternal notch and infuses you interosseusly(through the bone)
