Patient PreparationCâu 86 / 100
On needle insertion the patient reports sudden shooting, electric pain radiating to the hand. What should be done?
a.Discontinue immediately, remove the needle, and report the event
b.Redirect the needle deeper to find the vein
c.Reassure the patient and finish the draw quickly
d.Loosen the tourniquet and continue
Giải thích
Shooting, electric or radiating pain and tingling suggest nerve involvement, and the needle must be removed at once to prevent lasting injury, with the event reported and documented. Continuing or redirecting the needle deepens the contact and increases the risk of permanent damage. Loosening the tourniquet does nothing about the nerve contact itself.
