I have heard scalp iv is the easiest and less stressful way to get a much needed IV into a newborn babies vein. Should IV insertion into the infants scalp be inserted still even if the newborn infant was stressed out with protesting at previous IV attempts at veins in the limbs etc. Or in the end is thigh injections a better option even though to begin with the scalp IV was the kindest less stressful option for an infant in need of an IV?

Certainly not, This is the last resort. If the drip tissues, thae scalp will melt away leaving a hole. If I came across a doctor using scalp veins, I would literaly kick them out. The babies have to grow up with a bald scar on the head. What a shame you have been given the wrong advice.

Wearing gloves is critical !!

If gloves could prevent infection, its a gift to mankind to protect us all from the bacterial thret

@PositiveNature blindly following others. use your common sense. how is a film of latex going to help in a needle stick injury? not only will it fail to protect your skin from the needle, but once you sustain the tear, your gloves become useless. THINK!

In america we call IVs catheters, but cannula makes more sense to me. Worked as an RN for awhile.

@WonkyDoodle All I'm doing is quoting what I have read based on research and what I am told every time I go to Occupational Health. When an individual gets a needlestick injury, if they are wearing gloves, the chances of them contracting something from the needle, reduces. If you do not agree with that, then you need to challenge those who provided that information, not me.
