Question 1 of 5

A nurse is inserting a short peripheral IV catheter for a client who requires IV fluids. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Select a site proximal to previous venipuncture sites. This is important to prevent complications such as phlebitis and infiltration. Choosing a site proximal to previous punctures allows for better vein integrity and minimizes the risk of injury. Options A and B are incorrect as they do not address potential complications or best practices for IV insertion. Option D is incorrect since using a larger gauge catheter can actually increase the risk of phlebitis. Option E, F, and G are not provided. In summary, selecting a site proximal to previous venipuncture sites is crucial for successful IV therapy and minimizing complications.
