A sterile probe cover could be used, but isn't generally necessary.The probe can be chemically disinfected before use and sterile lube can be used. Remember that this is a peripheral IV access technique and is aseptic rather than sterile.

Extremely clear and very helpful. Thanks!

@armypafry we have sterile sheaths that we put over the probe.

kimmie 1904, I clean the probe after every IV and also place an opsite over the probe. Also, sterile KY jelly (individual packet for each patient) works like a charm.

Very nice video but what about infection control? Shouldn't a sterile probe cover be used? What if the needle touches the probe before it enters the ptient.

@agubbini
you can sterilize the probe with a germicidal wipe, just like sterilizing the skin
