PIV catheter insertion is the most common invasive hospital procedure. However, with a failure rate of up to 50% and complications all too common, why is education and training in PIV placement still lacking in many hospitals? Learn how we implemented an evidence- based blended education program that dramatically boosted nurse knowledge, confidence and improved clinical outcomes. Don't miss this opportunity to explore the components of our successful educational program, use our tools to replicate the program in your institution and help transform your vascular access care.

Learning Objectives:

  • State two evidenced based updates to improve PIV insertion.
  • Describe three components of a PIV education and training program that have been shown to improve patient outcomes.
  • State three PIV outcome measures of a PIV educational program.
