The Nurses' Station, P.C. analyzed the way that blood draws, IVs, finger sticks and infant heel sticks are currently being performed BECAUSE?.
Abstract In 2008, there were 37.5 million hospital admissions in the United States. Every hospital patient gets at least one blood draw on admission, 7 out of 10 get an IV, and 3 out of 10 get an injection of contrast totaling a minimum of 263 million vein access procedures in hospitals alone. At least 4 out of every 10 sticks fail, and not just once. That calculates out to an estimated 174 million vein access failures divided between the IV, the blood draw, and the injection of contrast. Why so many failures• The primary explanation is that the current methods of vein access are not science based; they are anecdotally and empirically based and rooted in the 19th century.
These procedures are not being correctly performed - according to the Scientists. And The Nurses' Station has discovered and defined the correct SCIENTIFIC way to perform these procures.
Resulting in successful one stick attempts without all of the collateral patient pain and suffering and all of the damage to the blood results and the IVs that currently occurs..
