Hey
So I've read everything here and have various first aid/ medical certifications.
The sterilerility and IV parts are easy and well understood.
Where I'm struggling is the catheter type and depth/ placement.
I have 18g butterfly's and 19g safety catheters at my disposal. Can't decide which to use?
Placement is going to be 7 o'clock pointed towards 2 at a shallow angle 1" bellow the arolla. I'm thinking a depth of 1/2" should suffice. This will be 500ml of 5% glucose per side. I may use saline instead at 1000ml per side.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
