We had a nurse give an air shot because she was pre-filling syringes (which we train against) and she forgot to fill this one. She lost her nursing license. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwibrown Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) The danger of an air embolism is that it kind of jams the atria of the heart iirc. You need to lie on your right side if it happens. The amount that you have to put through is to do this about 30mls which about how much is in the tubing for a stand IV line. If you use an electronic pump it shouldn't happen, they must have been using a free flow set. I nearly have done it before when someone else said they primed the line. Which they hadn't done. Scared the crap out of me. Edited November 1, 2020 by Kiwibrown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if one person spiked it and didnt run it through and another person connected it. That's how it nearly happened with me. Big communication error.
