    Study Notes

    Pre-Procedures

    • Check doctor's order and greet patient
    • Assess patient's level of consciousness and anxiety
    • Provide privacy
    • Wash hands

    During Cannulation

    • Wash hands
    • Select the site and vein:
      • No wound or rashes
      • Vein is big enough, straight, soft, and visible through the skin

    Complications of Intravenous Therapy

    Hematoma

    • Resulting from infiltration of blood into tissues at the venipuncture site
    • Related to venipuncture technique
    • Use of large bore cannula: Trauma to the vein during insertion
    • Patients receiving anticoagulant therapy and long-term steroids

    Hypoxia

    • Present when PaO2 is less than 60 mmHg or SpO2 by pulse oximeter is less than 90%
    • Causes:
      • Hypoventilation
      • Low inspired oxygen
      • Increased oxygen consumption (e.g., shivering, sepsis, pain)
      • Low cardiac output
      • Anatomic shunt: refractory to oxygen therapy
    • Clinical conditions that may delay gastric emptying and increase risk of aspiration:
      • Anxiety
      • Autonomic dysfunction (gastroparesis)
      • Hiatal hernia / GERD
      • Morbid obesity
      • Pregnancy
      • Bowel obstruction
      • Head trauma / increased intracranial pressure
      • Multi-trauma

    IM Injections

    • Deltoid muscle injection technique:
      • Injection given between upper and lower portions of the deltoid muscle
    • Ventrogluteal Region:
      • Lies in close proximity to the gluteal region
      • Primary use is for IM injection in patients who are bedridden and unable to lie face down
    • Sciatic nerve:
      • One of the longest nerves in the body
      • Risk of paralysis if hit during injection

    Submucosal Sedation

    • Used in pediatric dentistry
    • CNS-depressant drug is injected into the mucous membrane in either the maxillary or mandibular buccal fold
    • Advantage over IM administration: slightly more rapid onset of clinical action

    Inhalation Sedation

    • Form of conscious sedation
    • Inhaled drug:
      • Depresses the central nervous system (CNS) to an extent that allows operative treatment with minimal physiological and psychological stress
      • Modifies the patient's state of mind such that communication is maintained and the patient can respond to verbal command
      • Carries a margin of safety wide enough to render the unintended loss of consciousness and loss of protective reflexes unlikely
    • Advantages:
      • Onset of action is more rapid than oral, rectal, intranasal (IN), or intramuscular (IM) sedation
      • Peak clinical action in a time span permitting titration
      • Recovery time is rapid
      • No adverse effects on liver, kidneys, brain, or cardiovascular and respiratory systems
    • N2O-O2 can be used instead of local anesthesia in certain procedures
    • Analgesia produced by a 20% concentration of N20 is equivalent to that of 10 to 15 mg of morphine
