scarring
blood collection is likely to be difficult and painful for the patient
arteriovenous fistula or shunt for hemodialysis
it can compromise the circulation in that arm and damage the device
hematoma

above an IV catheters insertion
IV fluids can mix with the blood sample and affect the results
serum

LAST CHOICE

Median cubital vein
FIRST CHOICE
lies near the center of the antecubital fossa, less prone to injury. does not usually move when punctured
divisions of the nervous system
brain and spinal cord
characteristic of arteries
thick muscle layer lining the lumen
excessive bleeding
apply pressure and ice until further evaluated
infection
does not occur immediately, but educate patient to report signs of redness, swelling , and pain at the venipuncture site
serve pain
remove the tourniquet, remove the needle, and apply pressure to the site
