Tim,
I gave that exact same suggestion yesterday to an anesthesia doc. He told me that the percentage of major complications come from just putting the patient to sleep. They have reactions to the anesthesia, or the doc over sedates the patient, so the doc wants a large bore IV to start out with, and they do not care what they have to do to get it. By the way, I was just talking about peripheral IV catheters, not PICC's or midlines. Nice to hear from you. I thought you dropped off the face of the earth.
