- How to start a peripheral IV in the dorsum of the hand: clinical nursing skill technique.
Starting an IV (intravenous catheter) can be an intimidating experience for nurses, especially nursing students and new nurses. However, nurses will perform IV insertions often, so this is an important nursing skill to learn.
Before starting an IV, always follow the protocols of your facility, as well as manufacturer's instructions for any supplies used.
In this video, Nurse Sarah demonstrates how to start a peripheral IV in the dorsum of the hand. Prior to inserting the IV, you'll want to do the following:
-Gather supplies
-Perform hand hygiene
-Prepare supplies (including priming the saline flush, removing air from extension tubing, opening packages, completing labels, and any other steps required by your facility.
-Locate a suitable vein
-Perform hand hygiene
-Don gloves
If the patient has a lot of hair, you might want to use clippers to trim the hairs prior to starting the IV. You may also apply a tourniquet to help veins move near the surface of the skin.
Next, you'll want to clean the site using the cleaner that came in the IV start kit, such as ChloraPrep.
Once the site has dried completely, you can insert the IV. Stabilize the vein with your non-dominant hand, and insert the IV's needle into the vein, watching carefully for blood return (or a blood flash) in the chamber. Advance the IV around 2mm more to ensure the plastic cannula is in the vein, then thread the cannula into the vein and press the needle safety button.

This video also demonstrates how to flush the IV using the push-pause method, how to secure the IV using the Tegaderm dressing that came with the IV start kit, considerations of the different cap types and the clamp sequence, and more.

Thank you so much
Thank you. That was excellent work and very informative.
I remember watching these videos. Hopless mother of 2 no diploma trying to figure my way out. Got my GED and got into an LPN program. Today I am an RN holding a bachelor's degree preparing to enroll in anesthesia programs. I said that to say this, if I can do it so can you! This may be the beginning of a life you never saw for you. Never give up and keep going 💪🏾... peace and love!
I love this!!!!
Awesome 🤩
You're a hero, you dropped this 👑
❤️❤️so inspiring and motivating
Best of Luck & much success in your Anesthesia program!!! You got this💯💯💯!!!

Hey Sarah, I started watching you 3 years ago when I started nursing school, now I have been a RN in a geri med unit for a year. Thank you from Canada :)
Hi Ki Song I am a registered Nurse from Bangladesh and I’ve completed BSN and now I am studying Nursing APRN (Nurse practitioner) Msc at University of Pécs Hungary..I wanna perusing my Nursing career in Canada.Could you please help me to know where to began,what to do ?
@@miscellaneous23 Hello, how do you enjoy it here in Hungary? I'm studying nursing too, but at Semmelweis University in Budapest.
Kudos to you and your husband for showcasing a real demonstration! 😊
She is birthing a lot that is why😊
Passed my NCLEX first try in 79 questions! I’ve been watching ur videos for years now so thank you for helping! Definitely keep watching as I begin my practice!
I am returning to Nursing after 16 years at home with my children. I am so thankful that you have posted this video. It helps me to see the “new” IV dressing and site prep supplies and how to use them. I have enjoyed your other videos as well. Thank you so much!! Great job!
I read your comment wow God bless you ! I thought I’m the only one struggling new nurse here I’m also refreshing nursing skills .
I’m in your shoes right now😊
going back after 15years and it’s mixed emotions really❤️
i pray that God gives me strength to carry on with this noble calling🙏
I am forever grateful to Sarah for these videos. But her husband is truly the unsung hero 😂💛
I’ve been intimidated for over a decade but not today after watching this video. Thank you
First of all I will say that guy that let Sarah perform her video ON HIM is a hero if it weren't for him we wouldn't be educated on this so besides Sarah we all should take a moment to thank this guy that let her perform her video💖💖💖
Thank you for doing this on a real arm. It's so much more helpful.
This vid came right on time. RN for a year but with little IV insertion practice. Now starting in the ED and that will all be changing 😲 Thanks for the help!
Yeah, I do 5-10 a day with blood draws off the Cath in er.
I'm a student from Egypt and I learned many things from this Chanel. Thank you 😊❤️
Hi Sarah from the bottom of heart. I want to thank for everything you do. I just found out that I passed my Nclex you helped with it and throughout nursing school. Your videos are amazing. Thanks thanks thanks
I literally owe you my tuition you are a blessing to us nursing students!!!
Who’s sittin at work on a low acuity day watchin this after failing yet another IV start? 🙋🏻♀️
Just found your page. Thank you so much for showing this. I'm not an rn like everyone else bit an emt getting my iv certification and just started tonight and have been nervous about doing my sticks after we complete classroom work. This definitely helped so much and what's great is I can watch it again and again. I can't wait to watch and learn more from your videos as one day I want to be a firefighter rn, not just an emt
As a retired nurse I find your video's wonderfully informative. Wish I had this when I started. 40 years ago,
One of the best videos i have seen
Hey 👋 am a student nurse in Ghana and I am happy watching this because I am doing my clinical . thank you 😊 so much
For some reason I only saw putting pressure on the vein before pulling out the needle in one hospital, and I've had clinical practice in 3 other hospitals as well. I wonder why? It's so much more clean than letting the blood gush out everywhere and having to clean it up afterwards. Thank you for the beautiful demonstration!
Your videos helped me out in Nursing school and I was able to pass my NCLEX! Thank you so much and may the Lord continue to bless you to bless countless students with knowledge and understanding!
I find you to be an excellent skills teacher. Your videos are so so good. And you always do an awesome job highlighting the pros and cons. Thanks to you 🙏🏾🙏🏾.
We are doing IVs this week at my school and omg this was so helpful thank you!🥰.

Thank you soooo much dear Sarah and your hubby. God bless your family always ❤
Thank you Nurse Sarah very easy technique to use the IV
Thank you for every video you uploaded, even if it's a year ago or many years before. I will always watch this video over and over again, it helps me in my practice. If I get used to setting on an IV and taking blood tests then you have done an amazing job educating us with your videos and it takes us students who enjoy learning by watching procedures, to be successful through amazing tutors like you 😊
Thank you Sarah. I am PN student almost rounding up . Got one term in my port folio. I was so overwhelmed when I was thought this skill in lab. My instructor went over it so quickly 😮 but I have updating my skill through this video . Going for clinical 2 soon and I feel confident to practice this skill on real pt. Thank you so much 😅
Thank you so much, Sarah. Appreciated.❤❤❤💕
Thanks for this! Actually anxious about my return demo for this one in a week. But due to this, at least I have anticipated what to do.
This nurse sounds like she makes the best peach cobbler in Georgia
One of the best iv tutorial videos I’ve watched! I’m returning to the icu after a couple years doing dialysis. Wish me luck lol.
I'm taking childcare and I will be taking nursing next year and I'm sure I will learn a lot from this channel. Thank you so much for demonstrating nursing skills for us. This is so exciting. ☺️❤️😁
Thank you so much for making these videos. They are so useful! I'm applying to nursing school this year. :)
Good luck!
Any tips on pushing in the catheter? It’s easy for me to hit the veins and get flashback, but for some reason half the time I go push in the catheter, I lose vein access or the vein blows (less common but still happens to me). It’s so discouraging! I feel like I’ve tried everything, going flush against the skin, going in A TINY BIT more before advancing the catheter, etc. I don’t understand, I’ve very frustrated.
It sounds like you might be going through the vein. Try going slower when starting. Also, IV needles are designed so that it is very hard to puncture the vein with the top of the needle, so pull your needle up when you advance the needle just a little more. Once you are sufficiently in the vein you can advance the catheter.
Thanks Sarah its very helpful
You are amazing! Thank you for making these videos!
Thank You!! I always learn so much from your channel
I sited my first IV today!
These are great suggestions Sarah!! :)

Could you please do a video on accessing a power port or any type of port in general? Thank you so much for your time. 😊
Any tips on patients with deep veins or rolling veins found in elderly patients? I usually will get a little blood return, but never enough to fill up any of the vials for lab tests. Thank you!
Hi Sarah. So glad that today I discovered your videos for the first time. I'm not a nurse or any medical body/employee/nor supposed medical professional and nor am I American nor living in America. It is simply my love of all things medical and being a regular patient too plus a being a parent and daughter to parents now classified as elderly it is important I know exactly what is what and what is going on to keep us all safe from honestly some medical so called professionals whom definitely need to either seek out alternative careers, or them to seriously update their bedside/patient and seated patient side manner and knowledge by further study/return to uni or medical school. l feel even better informed through watching and always observe if possible what is being done to me or loved ones or others. Lack of nurse/doctor knowledge can actually be apaulling when a patient knows more about certain things than they the nurses and doctors do. I like to learn. My interest is deep and I find so many are sloppy in what they do into bad habits that I want to correct them 😂 but I instead observe and say nothing unless absolutely necessary as we do all have our own sloppy bad habits. I just personally don't find them acceptable around patients potentially putting them at risk. Perhaps I should go into nursing but fear my intolerance for sloppy bad habits would not go down well at all with the UK mindset being rather pompous, ignorant, archaic, stuck up, small minded, shallow and significantly backwards in thinking in general. Bless the NHS but seriously the sloppiness of employees is getting worse and lack of respect and tolerance for patients is disturbing and unprofessional. Almost 18 years ago I gave birth to my child, it wasn't acceptable then in the same way it isn't acceptable now of a nurse or midwife handling a less than 24 hrs old newborn with stinking smokers breath and stinkiing smokers fingers. Clearly having been outside smoking and then returned inside not washed their hands, and just came along and handled my pure newborn handing them to me making my newborn dirty for me to also get a sickening whiff of their supposed to be clean and hygienic stinking smokers fingers and breath that had just dirtied my baby and put my baby at risk. lt's disgusting. I can tolerate people smoking, but wash hands properly and brush teeth afterwards and don't handle babies or go near respiratory patients if they haven't. Have smelt smoke on the hands and clothing of far too many nurses and doctors, but on the hands and breath is the worst. Have also seen them using the toilets and walking out whilst on shift not bothering to wash hands. No excuses for it and other bone idol lazy sloppinesses. So anyway thank you for providing so many with these informative and very clear and helpful videos. ☺
One more tip as far as vein selection; (comments were closed on the “vein selection” video). When you’re looking for a good site and are still ungloved, it is very helpful to wet your finding finger with an alcohol prep, and also wet the patient’s skin with alcohol prep. It’s amazing how much more sensitive your finger is as you slide it around the patient’s skin. You can also do this once you are gloved. Same idea as how ultrasound gel works.
Amazing
Please bring more clical tutorial. Thank you!
Thanks :))
I am a student nurse from Bangladesh. Loving ur videos...u r an inspiration for nursing student 😍😍
Wow great
I keep losing access once I advance the catheter....so frustrating!! What am I doing wrong?!
Me too!! I always hit the vein, I have like a 100% success rate JUST getting flashback in the chamber. However, as soon as I have to push in the catheter, half the time it doesn’t go in (only like halfway at most), or the vein blows! I feel like I’ve tried everything but sometimes I just don’t get it. It’s so frustrating.
I will be glad to work with you someday.
