I’m a new nurse and I was lost distinguishing between the different types so thank you so much for this video
Needed this so much! Thanks Ashley! U sound congested here on this video! Get well soon!
im a nursing student and i always find your videos to be super helpful! I love when you do blogs about your day and these little informational videos! super quick information and very helpful! you'd definitely put my mind at ease!(:
Thank you. I am an older new nurse and I needed this!
Such a concise and thorough summary in just 6 minutes! Thank you so much!
Excellent talk! Also, I loved the visit by Ivy!!
Ports (and all central lines PICC's, Hickman's, Groshong's) can be placed on either side but are preferably placed on the right side. I can't remember specifically why, but I think it has something to do with the way the vascular system works. The central line I currently have (I've had many many PICC's, a few Groshong's and currently, a port) is a Power MediPort implanted on the upper right side of my chest (the right side if someone is facing me). Not that anyone asked me (at all haha), but I think the world would be a better place if every nurse was proficient in accessing ports and other implanted central catheters....(not to mention basic IV's) even if they don't deal with them often.
I see a lot of people struggle because the patient is being poked at because no one can access their port or use their central line and the nurse is just as frustrated just because they lack the training or practice with these lines.
Ashley, I bet you're an amazing critical care/ICU nurse. It can be so scary to be in ICU - I'm sure your patients really appreciate your caring, confident care while they're getting through all the crazy things that can land you in ICU.
Great video! I love that your doggo's name is IV (Ivy)
Didn't searched for it! But you're adorbssss!
helped so much thank you!!
Thank you! VERY helpful as a new nurse here!
I happened to just be looking online and found your page, so watched a couple of video's. You seemed sweet, so I subscribed. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have a Power Port. These ports you can inject MRI and CT dye, as well as medications, fluids and blood draws.. Most are put into your right side. To answer your question, they can be placed into the left side (mine is left sided) because of having a Groshong Catheter years ago on my right side. They can go through your jugular vein or sub clavicle. When placing in Brest Cancer patient, they put them the opposite side of where the cancer is. That's just what I've been told. Some ports don't support MRI's or CT's. I'm not a medical professional, just what I've been explained. I love your positive attitude!
Thanks for sharing!
So helpful! Thank you soo much
Hi Ashley, I'm a new grad occupational therapist and I've watched a lot of your videos to get a better idea of how to be a good team member with nursing, to understand the role/knowledge of nurses better, and for tips on working in medical settings.
I wonder if you would consider doing a video on tips for OTs on like ports/lines/dressings when engaging patients in bathing - when I was in IPR I just always consulted nurses but I'm sure you have some tips for therapists in being medically as safe and sound as possible. Also maybe certain questions I should ask nursing (in ICU or acute or wherever), values and vitals to watch out for, whatever else you think a new grad OT working with your patients should know.
Of course we touch in this stuff in school a bit but OT is super broad so we don't go into too much depth medically and we're mostly taught to consult nursing on everything. Thank you!
Great video. Thank you!
The part of your video When you mentioned ports being able to be in either side, they can. Mine is on the left and a friend had hers on the right. My oncologist gave me the choice to make.
Awesome!!!
Thank you!
Great video!
You can draw blood off of an IV.
Ports can be either left or right upper chest.
This just reminds me how different nursing units are! I work on transplant/oncology and I see ports almost as often as PIVs
I am sure you do!
A subclavian central line is common where I work and they're preferred because they're a lot easier to keep the dressing on and clean, thus reducing infection rates. Butttt, they're harder to place.
When would you use a central line vs PICC line vs IV?
I’ve accessed two ports on the left side! :)
Interesting, when my grandmother was in the hospital the nurse said that nurse's can insert picc lines, but not central lines?
Good video
This is a great video to refer back too.
THANKS!
And I love IV! Lol
Hey, Ashley! How would you manage the dogs for 12 hour shifts if you didn't have a dog sitter? I'm trying to plan for having a dog and working 12s. Thanks!!
I take them to the dog sitter...I don't know what else I would do besides that!
Ahh...a quinton cath! I'm in my ICU rotation now so this is a cool refresher 😊
👍☺
You mean a phlebotomist
