U turn to venous air embolism
Singh, Harsimran; Tewari, Anurag; Kaur, Balvinder & Garg, Suchita
Abstract
There is a definitive risk of venous air embolism when the fluid infusion is complete and the drip set is still open in a glass bottle.We have devised a novel way of preventing the chances of air embolism when the fluid in the glass bottle finishes. It really gives a "U" turn to the chances of venous air embolism.
Keywords
Glass bottles, IV fluid therapy, venous air embolism
