I'm not a nurse or anything medical. Just wondering how this drawing blood works. I thought sure that was a real person's arm until he started moving it around. 😂

😂😂😂 I'm sitting here watching and thinking.... wow that lady is very patient getting blood drawn..... Then thought wait did he just miss her vein?!! Then I enlarged the video and saw its a mannequin arm..😂😂😂😂... Then I LoL when Cricket Green popped in my head and said his famous line.... What's going on here!!! 😂😂❤

Can't be a student!!!! I know, I know!

What is the website? Writing overlaps another so it was not voear

What gauge is this? Thank you

Great video,,good job

She did good! Looking professional and competent! 🎉

THAT LOOKS SOOOOOOOOOOO PAIN FUL

How would you handle with tourniquet on for 1 min with multiple tubes?

I had a venous degeneration after doxycycline infusion

Another good video, thank you for this, succinct and very useful.

I thought you’re never supposed to recap ?? That’s what they’ve taught me

thank you for caring about us! muchly apperciated!

❤❤❤

Thanks

Personally, i always refuse selection from there first because people rarely get it

Once you enter the skin dont redirect and try to "find the vein". Just start again. Ive had people hit nerves, cut up the vein more and just cause so many issues because they missed the vein but dont want to try again. It bloody hurts every single time you redirect. It is a sharp object, being forced to move around under the skin. You are cutting everything you touch. Just. Start. Again.

Do you have any videos on dealing with contact/edema[both of these] in extremities patients, outside of the ac and posterior portion of hand

Do not bend the arm fro how long

I’ve once seen a special tube with brown background and grey speckles, what is that used to test actually?

🧝🧝‍♀️✨🪄

I love the answers, they resemble NCLEX questions. Even if 4 out of the 5 questions seem correct One should chose THE BEST ANSWER. ❤

Hi I’m working on opening my first phlebotomy school in TX,do you provide curriculum in my state

Can you repalpate if you wipe your glove off with the alcohol swab??

Thanks for your amazing teachings ❤️🙏

I'm a student in phlebotomy and we did our first sticks yesterday and I missed the vein (obviously, first time) so I'm hoping this vid will help.

Im writing these tips in my notes prayers to all please pray for me 🙏🏽🎉❤

Yeheyy I passed today!! I told myself I won't let the day pass with out thanking you , You are amazing! I took my 2nd try last Nov 2 and I just got my result today and I passed then NHCO..

I’m a MA now and this video helped a lot thanks for the advice

Are the questions the same every state?

Today we did blood drawing practice at uni, and I did it twice on a guy with high blood fat percentage. And I failed both times. But this helped so thank you!! I’ll def try again

very good video and great tips. how would we study questions for the test. I know the test has different questions than what is out there but I'm trying to find a good website or something like that to use, what would you recommend?

Sorry ididnt wait til the end of video. Loved it thank you! Disregard last comment 😊

WHERE ALL MY FENTANYL AND METH ADDICTS🎉

I am an addict and some of the comments have been really insightful as well as the video content. Because my veins have collapsed I have to use my femoral vein or my neck by blowing my thumb and holding my breath. both I know are bad practices but when you are desperate or in withdrawal anything that gets the gear in my veins is a bonus. I have a hot shower, an electrolyte drink, and a pint or two of water before my hit to ensure I'm hydrated. A hot shower beforehand also helps with hygiene. Although I still use a swab of or I have an atomizer with isopropyl alcohol; I have been injecting heroin and cocaine together, it's called a snowball and I've been an I.V. user for 26 years I'll be 49 next summer, and I have never had an abscess, boil, septicemia or any injection-related infection '(Touchwood)'. My friends call me Dr D, as people ask me to get them when they can't get on. but I always have Naltrexone on me and I push super slow so if they start to look too stoned I will stop pushing to prevent O.D. I saved my fair share of lives from an accidental overdose when other people have done it for them and they have panicked and run off and left them as it carries a potential manslaughter charge. The hospital and Dr surgery staff can't get them and when people I know including myself have a blood test ......I always end up suggesting to them I could get it, I would sign a waiver if they're uncomfortable, with me doing it, as it is better than them stabbing me repeatedly with no luck and the more times they miss the more there confidence starts to ebb then comes the frustration. I have no trouble because the sites are big veins but I'm going to add some of your techniques alongside what I already know as you can never have enough knowledge or wisdom. That goes for people in the comments section as well. Regardless of my lifestyle, you wouldn't know to look at me. I do plan on cleaning my act up before too much damage is done that's irreversible and unsightly. I've been lucky so far apart from the collapsed veins......but I go to the gym and the veins find a new path but you can't use their new veins because they blow. It takes some time for the veins to reroute the circulation. A good tip is to during exercise or weight lifting have some beetroot juice before a workout as this helps increase nitrous oxide levels naturally which in turn causes vasodilation and adds to the work and the veins look great. but after I settle down my veins shrink again, but I know if I Quit the drugs and put in the hard work, some of the damage can be reversed to a degree. Is anyone else out there an addict? If so keep your chin up, and don't give up trying to quit. And never let your moral and morals slip. own your flaws. You'll do fine.

Great job:)

Good evening! I have a questions which one goes first for order of draw? Lavender or Pink? And aside from date of birth in out patient what is the most important identification?please help me asap.I really appreciate your time.

Nice post good info, there is a way to pass the NHA exam CPT, easy.

you are incredible, thank you

amazing video, perfect step by step teaching

The NHA(CPT) test is frustrating, I can't believe I failed again after studying so hard

Thank u so much I was having a hard time with patients that u couldn't see the veins with and your steps and the way u explain everything helped me rite away, I was almost thinking this wasn't the thing for me, so glad I ran into your video. Keep up the good tech that u have on this topic, thank u again can't thank u enough.

How please? I don’t see Join Now. Just the Super Thanks button.

👍👍👍👍👍nice information

it would be better if you inserted the iv cannula in IV sites you located. How could we know if your teaching is effective because you did not demonstrate. Prove it.

I'm about to start classes these videos help so much . Thank u

CLIA, not CLEA. That is false about Red tubes. GLASS red tubes do not have additive. PLASTIC RED has Clot activator. Tiger top is an SST, a Serum Separator Tube, because it has the gel barrier in it. Red top tubes do not have gel barriers therefore are NOT SSTs. Too small a needle for too large a vein or tube causes the RED CELLS to break, causing Hemolysis. The stronger suctions pulls the vein tissue into the needle tip, which either tears it causing a blow, or completely occludes the needle and stops blood flow. Your needle may be too high in the vein, or turned towards the side and sitting to close to the side of the vein. Not enough blood back up in the vein vs how much you need to draw. The vacuum in the tube isn't going to start out strong and then sudden "go out." If the vacuum is an issue, it will be so from the start of the draw, or will not fill the tubes fully.

The only place they get my blood is my knuckles 90% of the time, I've had hundreds of blood draws and only twice have I gotten it in my arm and about 10% from my hand, the rest is my knuckles

Thank you for teaching people not to fish, lord mercy that's the only time I tell a phlebotomist to stop 😂I'm a hard stick, if they don't listen to what I tell them, they never get it and usually the ones who don't listen are the inexperienced ones who like to fish 😅
