You forgot to displace 0.5 ml of air into the bottle with the syringe before withdrawing the amount of liquid of 0.5 ml. If you do not push air into the bottle by the same amount that you will be withdrawing, then eventually, you will create a vacuum and will not be able to get any more liquid out of the bottle.
I've never heard of this and I'm graduating from a Vet tech program, that's interesting!
Hello, I gave been a RN for 30 years and have always injected the same amount of air into a syringe as the amount of solution that I am taking out of the vial. Now, I am in veterinary technician school at Purdue University and the instructor of my Pharmacy Basics class taught us to do what I just mentioned. Please ask your instructor at your school if this is correct. Also, congratulations on your upcoming graduation. I am sure you will be a wonderful technician!!
Thank you so much!! I’ll see if I have a chance to ask my teacher, who is a vet. I’m excited.
Taught today
@@hopeezenofor30Yay!! I am so glad that instructors are still teaching this! Thanks for letting me know. 😊
Don't forget to change your needle before giving to a patient.
Ffaaee

And why do you need to change a clean needle? Thats a waste
@@andreaharris4683because the tip is not as sharp you didn’t think before writing
in underdeveloped countries, that doesn't happen :P and in government veterinary clinics, they use same needle in multiple animal lol. really scary to live in a poor country :)
I thought you pulled back sure to amount and then after putting in vile you inject the air before pulling the med in?
Wait what about the part where you inject are to ease the vacuum?
As a professional heroin addict, I didn't know this was possible and so easy to do! I usually take a canoodle and spring jack the cap of the vial to extract the good stuff and then I reverse adjust the perpendicular vein towards the canoodle for injection via semi-conducting acupuncture. 👋😎🖖
Do syringes account for the dead space in the nozzle and needle?
😂
Liquid does not leave the vial. :Any tips?
what if you're drawing air and it's throwing off your measurement
Well be good fuck to yr bady paaaaaye
Wow in australia we are never allowed to recap…Nor do we draw drugs with a needle we use vial access cannula…different to other countries…
definitely different from indonesia, you usually use the same needle to the patient as the one you use from drawing up medication.
Here in US that only applies to phlebotomists in a blood draw situation
Ffaaee
@@taengfeverI'm in an EMT class in the US and I was told to use a second needle bc the rubber you stick the needle through might have latex and the needle touching it could trigger an allergic reaction in someone with a latex allergy. Not sure how accurate that is
Scoop technique nope, there’s never a good reason to re-sheath your needle. You just remove your needle from the syringe by the hub and place it into a sharps bin. Plus you shouldn’t have the medication vial in your hand when inserting the needle, that’s how you get a needle stick, you un-sheath the needle and insert it into the vial while it’s still on the table.
Ffaaee
🤓☝️
Thanks doctor..
Air or no air before getting into vial.
Change needle out to a different one prior to administering. Hmm
Why the gloves to pull up meds?
So I thought the silver metal band around the rubber cork was some child lock. I removed that metal film with a knife and now the rubber cork/stopper doesnt stay on the vial, meaning I cant tip it upside down to draw or it'll spill. Ahhh, think I might have contaminated the entite vial by exposing it to air and touching the rubber piece all over but that shit was $600 so I'll have to draw it another way and hope for the best 🤷🏻
Probably too late but I wouldn’t risk it if it’s contaminated it can lead to an infection what’s 600 dollars compared to something that could threaten your life
@@chav2002 So far no blood infection but yeah I'll know not to unseal it next time 😑 Vial still has some weeks left in it
@@Yukito590 there’s air in the vile already air is not going to contaminate it
Thanks now i can innect my steroids
the
garbage
Not the best technique!
Jessica is alright looking =)
i heard you have to draw up .5ml of air to add back into the bottle after drawing up your .5ml of medication. is this correct?
Why?
@@missymoo363 If you're drawing frequently, not replacing the liquid you took out with lowers the pressure since the air has more area to apply the same force. Eventually, you create such a low pressure that it's virtually impossible to actually draw the medication. Takes a bit to fix it so you can just completely avoid that by adding air back in. What people usually do for this is put the plunger to the desired amount with *just* air first, then with the bottle upright, you push the air in, then after doing that you flip it over just like she did and draw medication. This is probably the quickest way to do it.
@laflemme7247 thank you!!
In Canada where i am, you use a different needle to withdraw the medication, after you've done your safety checks and 1st set of rights. Also you hold the needle cover in the other hand and carefully put it back on. You withdraw the medication just a bit out of the drawing needle, change the tip and then push back up slightly until you see just a little pop out of the needle.
I'm in the U.S. and we do the same thing.
I really hope you don’t inject anything once that cap goes on the needle.. you are the problem if so
We do some of the other stuff the same as her. We also dont hold the vial in the hand as we draw it up (how they teach it in school, different in my hospital/hospitals, depending on the nurse in the hospital tho)
I’ve seen some nurses not clean the top with alcohol or wear gloves
Typically just make sure to not touch the top of the vial and you’ll be good
@@aztec9651 not true. Recommedation is to always wipe with 70-80% alcohol pads.
Yeah, my school is certified and never has told us to do that.
I starting to doubt myself when learning how to mix medication (powder and liquid) and draw the mixed medication with a syringe....either I insert/inject too much air or too little....I am going nuts as in crazy?
Thanks. 😊
i can't get that to do that
