Absolutely! Uncomfortable is just a lie. Insertion of a catheter is likely one of the most feared experiences as a young male, right up there with having a prostate exam. As previously mentioned, yes, it is uncomfortable but discomfort is different from pain. The insertion, and subsequent removal, of the catheter is really quite painless. Some pain does exist, and I'll get into this later, but all reasons for having a catheter inserted are far greater than the comparatively minor "pain" that it can cause.

To place an intravenous cannula (IVC) the preferred veins are in the patient's arm. As a general rule, the patient's non-dominant extremity should be used. That is, if a patient is right handed, the left arm should be used for IV access. In general, any distended vein may be used as long as all clinical and medical procedures and precautions are followed during the procedure.
