Need some advice on drawing blood on patients with bigger arms. I use to be able to get blood on this one patient all the time. But the last couple of times I havnt been able to hit their vein. They have bigger arms with tiny veins. They have a small vein in the AC area that is papable that I use to be able to hit using a butterfly. I don't know what has happened. I dont know if I should change my angle or what. Im afraid this patient is going to start hating me. Some advice would be greatly appreciated. I want to improve my skills on drawing blood.
Have you asked a lab person for some ideas? They might be able to help. When in doubt, you can always try youtube!
