This video explain the procedure to the patient and take informed consent. Consider using local anesthesia. Commonly used positions for venous cannulation are the dorsal hand, forearm, or antecubital fossa. Apply a tourniquet proximally and encourage fist clenching to engorge the veins. Look for a straight, wide, “spongy” vein, with no evidence of valves.
