Thank you for always making clinical videos! It would help a lot of nursing students who are learning online class due to covid pandemic. More videos to come ❤️ and God bless.

[Mel.U]

Excellent presentation; clear simple presentation that shows effectively how to do this procedure.

[huricanexify]

Couldn't have uploaded this at a better time I've got my Skills test tomorrow!

As an Infection Preventionist this is good, however, after you removed the old dressing and removed your old gloves, you forgot to preform hand hygiene. Never enter/open a sterile kit without performing hand hygiene first.

Hi! May I also clean the line itself and not just the surrounding site? Btw, thank you for the informative video!

[kosanprince]

before opening the sterile kit, needs to perform hand hygiene. After removing the dressing, the clean gloves are contaminated. Secondly, the sterile field should be maintained by disinfecting the table where all the material was placed.

The trauma to the catheter in removing the old dressing was distressing. One MUST stabilize the catheter at all times. Trauma can increase the risk of CLABSI.

Thank you for this. Your videos are very helpful to me and others. I’m a 20 year veteran nurse but I always love to educate myself. As you know in Nursing we are always learning no matter how many years of experience we have. Great job and God bless you. #NursesRock#🫶🫶🙌

[jinsu]

you cross contaminated the chg by handing it from your right hand to the left lol

[morgancampbell]

Aaaah don't touch skin when placing disc!

[ABSOLUTELY_LM]

How often does this change need to be done ?

[armandogonzalezrn]

Girl, why would you take off that dressing before setting up all of your supplies? You've left that insertion site open for a long time. Foul!

[nicolekelaher]

You forgot the hand hygiene you failed also you left the dressing open to long

[DBB-qpfb]

Where is the hand hygiene. I hope you are not teaching your bad habits

[HappyBoxer-nbmb]

I would have totally failed skills testing had I not either verbalized or performed hand hygiene before touching that kit… just sayin…….
