ISAVE That Podcast Season 4

Season 4, Episode 1 Ultrasound-Guided Peripheral IV Insertion: Variability Across Vascular Access Practice

Though ultrasound is the gold standard for guiding peripheral IV insertion, the variability across vascular access practice is extensive. The ISAVE That Podcast returns with a bang in 2021 by welcoming Dr. Nancy Moureau and Dr. Nat Kittisarapong to discuss their recent research on how the inconsistencies in safety products and protocols, variability in the type of gel being used, the cleaning of ultrasound probes and other supplies (and more).

Season 3, Episode 9 Position Paper: Minimum Education and Training for Peds/Neonatal IV Insertion

Timely and successful vascular access can be as challenging as it is vital for the pediatric and neonatal portion of the patient population. In December 2020, the Association for Vascular Access published a position paper titled, “Minimum Education and Training for Pediatric and Neonatal IV Insertion for all Clinicians” to provide recommendations to clinicians performing the most common invasive procedure on the tiniest and most fragile of patients. In this episode of the ISAVE That Podcast, AVA Director of Clinical Education Judy Thompson and Director of Communications Eric Seger discuss the paper with two of its authors, Mary Beth Hovda Davis, MSN, RN, VA-BC™ and Darcy Doellman, MSN, RN, CRNI®, VA-BC™ and then speak with another clinicians about how it could impact their practice.
