Points to practise
Preparation
Insertion
Needle removal
• Comply to aseptic technique
throughout the procedure
• Disinfect the injection site according
to local policy
• Remove the cannula from the
packaging and lower the wings
• Adopt your preferred grip and remove
the needle cover
• Insert the cannula at a low angle
• Upon primary flashback lower the
angle almost parallel to the skin
• Advance the cannula slightly, two to
three millimetres, to ensure the cannula
tip is in the vein
• Stabilise the cannula
• Ease the needle back two to three
millimetres
• Secondary flashback between the needle
and cannula will confirm correct
placement in the vein
• Advance the cannula completely into
the vein
• Remove the tourniquet
• Stabilise the cannula
• Occlude the vein just above cannula
tip and withdraw the needle holding the
needle grip or grip plate
• Do NOT hold onto the needle
protection shield
• Dispose of the needle in a sharps
container
• Close the IV access with the end
cap, other add-on devices or add
administration set
• Apply sterile dressing
• Flush the cannula to verify correct
placement in the vein
