Introduction
•Analgesia
•Fluid resus
•Appropriate site / size
•Not in Antecubital Fossa (ACF)
![Page 4: IV Cannulation of Patients with Fractured Neck of Femur](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56815001550346895dbdcb90/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why not in ACF?•Compromised flow of IV fluids
• Increased risk of neurovascular injury
•Preservation of ACF in case of emergency
•Mechanical phlebitis
• Increased risk of infection
•Reduced patient comfort
