CPNE IV Push Med lab (3 minutes video)

This is only the portion of pushing the medication into the IV port. I am trying to find out if my technique is correct or if I need to do it differently. I hope someone can help me. Please make a comment on youtube or if you do not have an account, please e-mail me at:

The CPNE is a feasible test but it requires a lot of studying and hard work. I am glad my videos helped you. I also have a very valuable tool that I used daily for about 3 months before taking the CPNE; Its an audio version of my mnemonics that I listened to on my MP3 player several times a day. As you know, the secret is to know your AOC as the palm of your hand! If you are interested, please send me a message with your e-mail address so I can contact you from my personal e-mail.

Free CPNE tips from Sherri Taylor on youtube you may find to be a good reference. After you pass the CPNE you may want to view some of the other youtube IV videos on IV insertion, piggybacks, pushes, and compatabilities. Also check out the book "Clinical Nursing Skills- Basic to Advanced" by Smith, Duel and Martin, Chapter 28 and 29. I find this reference to be very helpful so far. You're gonna do just fine:)

First, you should ID your patient, put on gloves and check the site for warmth, or swelling. Then cleanse the IV port with alcohol before you connect your syringe. Flush with saline. Then flush your medication. Then flush again with saline, but this time at the same rate you flushed the medication to avoid speed shock. You did fine. Just be careful not to contaminate your needle; only let your fingers touch the under part of the plunger and not the inner rod.
