Wonderful realistic account of what Vascular Access Nurses encounter. When we know better and are competent with the skill, we can do better. Patient outcomes and evidence in the literature reveal how impactful a Vascular Access Team can be. #vascularaccess #nurseeducator #pocus

A couple of weeks ago, I answered a consult placed by one of our critical care resource nurses. He was in the room with a patient that floor staff deemed unstable after transferring to the inpatient room from the ED. He asked for assistance as the 20 g PIV in the left forearm placed by ED staff seemed sluggish when flushing, and it had taken 15" to infuse 500 mL of NS on a pressure bag, and was painful for the patient. The patient had been hospitalized a week prior for cardiac reasons, for a week's duration.I placed the US over the PIV placed in ED. The entire vessel was noncompressible with visible echogenic material present. As I followed the vessel up the arm, the noncompressiblility continued up to the armpit. The staff that placed the PIV did not recognize why this was not an appropriate PIV placement. It's scary when those using the tool aren't specialists in vascular access.The utility of the US tool in medicine, especially vascular access, is hard to argue. Vascular access nurses see things bedside, in real time, and can often now identify why a PIV isn't working the way it should. The above is an example of combining critical care skills with vascular access - and a tool that sees below the skin's surface.Side benefit: the US is color blind. It works the same regardless of skin tone - natural tone or artificially colored. VA nurses can put in the best possible PIVs possible, knowing infusate administration is not without effect. Is it any wonder why the bolus of 500 mL on a pressure bag didn't work well? Not at all. Now imagine if this patient had decompensated into a code sitatuation. I wonder how well those emergency medications would have worked. Hmm.It's not "just an IV" folks. Maybe if we take the time to assess every other thing under the sun - safety, nutrition, fall risk, Braden scale, and so forth - maybe we should be taking the time to have vascular access professionals assessing the vasculature before PIV placement and before medication administration. Isn't this the nursing process learned in school? Assess, Diagnose, Plan, Intervene, Evaluate. If anyone out there (and I do mean anyone - MDs, pharmDs, admins, mgrs, IP, finance, quality, risk, safety, etc) has the capacity to follow your vascular access team members for a few calls, you might be surprised what you learn. The current model is wasteful and expensive, and continues to cause harm to patients. Given the tools we have available today, the medical community can do so much better.

Today's insight: The inclusion of accurate, diverse, and intentional representations of dark skin tones in nursing textbooks matters because it fosters equitable healthcare education, better prepares future nurses for diverse patient populations, and helps address historical biases that have perpetuated health disparities. Sometimes what is not taught or included in nursing curricula can be just as influential as what is explicitly covered.Representation of dark skin tones in foundational nursing textbooks: An image analysis - https://lnkd.in/dqKnAbhX
