 What comes to nursing school explain in this video on how to drop medication with a blunt cannula. And so we usually have the option of some syringes that already have needles attached or using an 18 gauge needle to drop medications from a regular bio. However, there's always a risk when there's a needle involved that you are going to poke yourself. Something is going to happen with that sharps. So there is, there are these what's called plastic blunt cannulas and they look very similar to a needle. However, they are just blunt like the name says and they're made out of plastic. And so I can unwrap this this blunt cannula and it has a lure lock so I can put this on any type of syringe. So in this case, I've chosen a 3 ml syringe. I just took it on here and then if I uncover it, you can see it's a blunt tip. It's not spiky like a needle and it's not metal in any case. So I it's really more safe, safer than a needle and it's also definitely less of a risk of poking yourself. Because even if you were to put that on your hand, it's not going to pierce the glove or your skin or anything like that. Clearly, we want to avoid touching the tip, but it always helps to have that blunt tip and then I would just use it as I would use it as in with any syringe to draw up medications. To recap, it's still a good practice to always put the cap down, use the one-handed technique and then push it on or use some object to push it on to keep it in place so then you can transport it to the patient's room and administer the medication. Thanks for watching this video. Also, check out the other videos I have in the IV administration and medication administration playlists. Thanks for watching. See you soon.
