I've been a nurse for 30 years and have never seen this...simple genius!
🤗Thank you
New grad nurse here, I just learned this from a nurse preceptor I had last week! I love this!
Wonderful. Thank you!
Omg thanks sooo much!!! I'm a new nurse and never had clinicals to practice anything 😱😱😱😱 I struggle priming iv lines 😅 to avoid running dry I was changing the amount of fluids from 1000ml to 945ml🙈🙈🙈
You are very welcome!
You never had clinicals??
I’ve never seen this technique. Cant wait to try it when I go back to work.
So awesome, I'm a mobile IV hydration Nurse, great tip thanks!
Genius. Worked like a charm. THANK YOU!
Love this!
Starting ICU clinicals next week... Keep the tips coming!
Best of luck! Thanks for watching. 🤗
I'm VERY impressed Meris!!!
Thank you!
Wow what a great tip!!! What about when using fluids with pumps? Will this still prevent air?
That’s what I was thinking too, will it not run dry if connected to a pump? 🤷🏽♀️
You are a blessing, thanks for the tip!!!
You are so welcome!
That was amazing! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Appreciate that. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing great tip!
Glad it was helpful!
Omg . Thank you so much for the information
Happy to help!
Woooow. :O Thank you so much!
Welcome!😊
Lol I’m trying this tonight!!
Thank you so much Meris!!! youre the best!!!
You are so welcome!
That’s the exact way I learned how to do it during ED clinicals. I even showed other nurses the trick during my preceptorship
Thank you!
Welcome!
Mind blown 🤯
🤗
That's a neat trick
Thanks
Can this be done when priming secondary lines? Or just back prime?
Thanks for it❤
No problem 😊
Genius
Wow never heard of this!
Thank you for watching!
Cool technique! I never get air in my lines so maybe I won’t use this but still very cool
And remember, when you spike your line, the easiest way to avoid puncturing the bag is to lay the bag on a flat surface (like your cart) & then spike the IV bag so you're not spiking it at an angle.
😱😱😱🥳
Where are u from
my preceptor calls it "burping the bag", definitely never saw this in nursing school
New grad nurse. Necessary!😹
Really good timing for this lol
Happy to hear!
Omg they always say clamp first in nursing school. I'll try this during orientation
Appreciate you watching!
The only thing with this method is that it makes it very hard to accurately read how much fluid has gone in when you are doing volumes less than the full liter.
I tried this and the fluid barely went into the chamber so it was a fail for me 😢
You often do have to squeeze pretty hard, and it can help to compress the chamber when you first insert it! --Meris
WOWZERSQQ
This is an amazing tip and I am going to share it with all of my fellow nursing students, thank you! 🩷
Please do! Thanks for watching.
