Keep missing veins when starting an IV or drawing blood? This is a common problem that nurses, phlebotomists, and other healthcare professionals face, especially when they don't have a lot of experience starting IVs on patients.


However, even nurses or phlebotomists with decades of experience can and do still miss veins from time to time, especially when the patient doesn't have visible veins due to illness (heart failure, kidney failure, dehydration, etc.), drug use, obesity, and more.


If you keep missing veins or work with a patient population that typically has few veins to use, there are several things you can try to help you increase your chances of a successful stick on the first try.


In this video, Nurse Sarah offers her insights into what to do when you miss a vein, tips on how to find veins on difficult patients, and more.
