A nurse is monitoring a client's IV site. The nurse should report which of the following findings as manifestations of phlebitis? (Select all that apply.)

D. Administering the injection in the love handles, 2 inches from the umbilicus. It is important not to remove the air bubble from the prefilled syringe, as it is designed to ensure the entire dose of medication is administered.

A. Enoxaparin should not be transferred into another syringe unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer or pharmacy guidelines. Pre-filled syringes are designed to deliver the correct dose accurately and safely.

B. It is important not to remove the air bubble from the prefilled syringe, as it is designed to ensure the entire dose of medication is administered.

C. A 30-degree angle is too shallow for subcutaneous injections and may result in the medication being deposited too close to the skin surface, potentially causing irritation or affecting absorption.

A. Leaving small air bubbles in the new infusion tubing is incorrect. Air bubbles should be primed out of the tubing before use to prevent air embolism.

B. Inserting the new device distal to the old IV site is incorrect. The new IV site should be placed proximal to the old site to avoid complications from previous catheter use and ensure proper circulation.

C. Wearing clean gloves during the new IV insertion is correct. Clean gloves are appropriate when inserting a new short peripheral IV device. Sterile gloves are generally required for more invasive procedures, but when changing the device itself, clean gloves are sufficient.

D. Shaving the hair on the client's skin before inserting the new IV is incorrect. Shaving the skin is not recommended because it can cause small nicks that increase the risk of infection. Clipping the hair, if necessary, is the preferred method.
