    Description
    The course provides a comprehensive study of the applications of pharmacology and venipuncture associated with medical imaging, with focus on venipuncture techniques. Application of skills, skills-building, and reinforcement of theory is included. There will be demonstration of the anatomy and physiology of venipuncture sites, instrumentation, saline intravenous solutions, and proper use of associated equipment. Students will first execute simulated demonstrations, then perform a minimum of ten successful venipuncture sticks on simulated patients (mannequin arms). Patient care aspects of venipuncture are emphasized, with extensive skills-building in effective communication and proper documentation.
