I just learned that per manufacturer's recommendation you should not prime under pressure. This can cause microbubbles that could eventually come together to form a larger air pocket and interfere with the waveform (and risk air delivered to patient).

Thank you for the presentation, I’m getting a little rusty.👍

Instead of purging the bag (which is quite brilliant) with a needle, maybe purge it when you have connected the drip chamber to the pressure bag? I would also purge that drip chamber of air as well. On the rotor we often have to lay our a-line fluid on the stretcher with the patient. Thank you for this helpful video!!!

@8:20 before zeroing, should you turn off the system connected to the patient? I'm not sure, maybe its a company specification. But other than that, nice presentation

Should we add 1000U Heparin to the NS bag?

Its hard to see how u switch the ports for zeroing or blood. drawning. Should film closer. Thank u for the info

500cc Bag should be facing out. You should be able to see what type of fluid someone has hung

[adunnithemidwife]

Can you film closer, it's hard to see the system

Two things to start with: bare below the elbow & no watch.
