BasilicBasilic
- Originates from the ulnar side of the metacarpal veins and runs along the medial aspect of the arm. It is often overlooked because of its location on the “back” of the arm, but flexing the elbow/bending the arm brings this vein into view
Medial BasilicMedial Basilic - Empties into the Basilic vein
running parallel to tendons, so it is not always well defined. Accepts larger gauge catheters.
- BEWARE of Brachial Artery/Nerve

The most common cause is damage to the wall during insertion or angle of placement.
STOP INFUSION and treat as indicated by Pharmacy, Medication package insert or drug reference book.

Phlebitis/ThrombophlebitisPhlebitis/Thrombophlebitis
Chemical
- Infusate chemically erodes internal layers. Warm compresses may help while the infusate is stopped/changed. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications are often used no matter what the cause Mechanical
- Caused by irritation to internal lumen of vein during insertion of vascular access device and usually appears shortly after insertion. The device may need to be removed and warm compresses applied
Bacterial
- Caused by introduction of bacteria into the vein. Remove the device immediately and treat w/antibiotics. The arm will be painful, red and warm; edema may accompany

CellulitisCellulitis
Inflammation of loose connective tissue around insertion site.
- Caused by poor insertion technique
- Red swollen area spreads from insertion site outwardly in a diffuse circular pattern
- Treated w/antibiotics

Septicemia/Pulmonary Edema/Septicemia/Pulmonary Edema/EmbolismEmbolism
Septicemia
- Severe infection that occurs to a system or entire body
- Most often caused by poor insertion technique or poor site care
- Discontinue device immediately, culture and treat appropriately Pulmonary edema- caused by rapid infusion
Pulmonary embolism - Caused by any free floating substances that require thrombolytic therapy for several months. Increased risk w/lower ext.
Air embolism- caused by air injected into IV system. Keep insertion site below level of heart

Vascular access device will not flush/can’t draw blood- Evaluate for kink in tubing or catheter tip against vein wall.
Vascular access device (VAD) leaking when flushed - Verify that hub access cap is connected correctly
Patient complains of pain while VAD being flushed- Assess for infiltration
VAD broken- PICC’s may be repaired. All other devices must be replaced
