This does not require a filter needle. Filter needles are for glass ampules that require to be broken and may have small shards of glass in your medication.
Scrub the top, don't just wipe it please. Also, gloves. No one wants what they don't know what was on your hand, on the needle then needle into the body. Use a filter needle to draw up, then change to IM needle so it's less painful. Thank you!
If you scrub anything...whether medication or an arm..you can't wipe back and forth..it literally will drag any particles back across themselves...particularly for the arm, outward winding circles is the best bet.
Shut up already! This video was to show everyone how to dilute the medication with that strange looking top that most medical workers haven't seen or used before. You're trying to get all technical like it's a DEHEC inspection. It's just a quick in-service okay...Damm!
I always find it funny that you alcohol off the top of the vial, yet are sucking in non-sterile room air into the syringe then injecting it into the vial.
Not every space of air is non-sterile. In microbiology class, when you disinfect your tool with heat and prepare them for inoculation, you’re supposed to hold it in the air for a few seconds and NOT wave them around to cool them off (increases risk of hitting a bacterial particle in the air). When a site is cleansed with alcohol in preparation for an injection, you let it air dry and NOT fan the air to make it dry faster (increases chances of bacteria being blown to the site). The chance of you drawing a tiny amount of air with bacteria is small. Think of everything you breathe in and out... it’s a good thing we don’t get sick on a daily basis. 👍
@@LanceDaPsycho some estimates suggest there is 10 ^ 4 bacteria per m3 of air. So in 1 ml of air there is statistically a 1 in 100 chance of sucking in a bacterical cell. Given how many doses are given across the world in a single day That's a lot of chances for introducing bacteria. My point in all of this is it surprising that there aren't more iatrogenic infections.
