the hybrid environment.
Screencast Title:
Intravenous needle catheter selection and IV therapy guidelines
Environment:
(on-site, online, or hybrid)
This lesson is intended for the hybrid environment. Student nurses and novice nurses will watch this screencast before engaging in on-site intravenous (IV) needle selection for IV starts
Screencast Goal:
This screencast will increase the awareness on the importance of IV catheter size selection depending on the intended use and/or patient population and IV therapy guidelines.
Description of Screencast lesson:
This screen cast is directed toward nursing students and novice nurses. The different sizes of IV catheters based on color and the supplies needed will be reviewed. The participants will participate by watching a short video immediately after screencast on IV catheters and therapy guidelines, answer 10 questions at the end of the lesson, print certificate of completion and bring certificate to skill lab for competency checkoff.
Learning Objectives
At the end of this lesson students and nurses will be able to
Identify the different sizes of IV catheters based on color
Verbalize uses for different catheter sizes
Identify supplies needed for IV starts
Document appropriately
Demonstrate at least 80% competency on post test on IV catheter sizes, usage, and therapy guidelines
Demonstrate an IV start in an on-site skills lab
,

Rationale:
Rationale:
It is important to understand the evidence behind the appropriate size selection of IV catheters to decrease the number of IV infiltrations.
When initiating an IV therapy nursing staff must asses the patient appropriately, the intended use of the IV, select the appropriate size of the IV catheter, and document appropriately.
Nursing staff must prioritize care to include assessing the IV site or sites for redness and/or swelling

Evaluate and Revise
If I were to recreate my Screencast, I would:
First, I would make sure that the slides correspond with the lesson as it is discussed. I would include a slide for the 14-gauge catheter, 16- gauge catheter, and the supplies inside the IV start kit. The slide for the IV catheters would include the front of the packaging along with the backside of the packaging. The time of the screencast would not exceed five minutes.
