@sandytracks the paramedics that u call when you are in trouble ALL started out this way or at least most did so quit your whining and justenjoy the vid. also for the " patient" he was never in any real danger as their are qualified people around to assist if it should come to that.
@DGK201 "that is a seriously gutsy effort of the "patient"....just hope that guy doesn't come anywhere near me or my friends with that style" It is a courageous effort on the patients behalf. A 14 guage cannula is a serious bore. I feel I can say he has a shocking technique having performed several hundred in my role as an ALS Paramedic infact on average I do 4 to 5 a day. I hope his technique improves quickly.
Damn that would hurt! It looked like it was the first time he put in an iv , maybe you should practice and perfect technique on something smaller like a 22G before going for the big guns? Question...did you remove the leur lock plug from the flashback chamber? That should have kept the blood contained in the chamber and from pouring out until you removed the needle from the cannula
@nyqs81 Just because a patient is conscious doesnt mean they dont get a 14. IF a multi systems trauma patient is conscious it does not mean they dont get a 14g...
@nyqs81 Yup, if you're worried that the patient will lose consciousness at any point, use a large bore cannula (if the veins will take it). Rapid fluid rehydration, pregnant mothers who are expecting any minute, hypoglycemic patients, MI patients, time critical road accident patients, hypovolaemic patients, the list is endless.
@Rexxxon Small bubbles aren't significant enough to be worried about. Large bubbles that can replace the liquid are the ones that can throw pulmonary embolisms, etc.
Keep practicing bro lol

why in the hell would you let a student put in a 14? I put them in alot in the field for drunks, traumas, etc..but never as a student. That's crazy.

There are only 2 instances when they get a 14g. When they deserve it or need it. Which one is this?

I actually like that idea. Maybe medics won't start a 14 unless necessary after experiencing the pain 1st hand.
