Aspirating air bubble from the IV lineRating: (votes: 3) Thanks Scrub hub, hook up an empty 10cc syringe to a port below the air. Clamp the line below the syringe (between syringe and patient), take the line out of the pump, then aspirate until you have the bubbles. Put the line back in the pump and restart the infusion.

^yup, what 1OhioNurse said

Just make sure you clamp the line below where you are sucking out the air or you will suck blood back up into the line
