Want this question answered?
im 14 and from my personal experiences i have had 2 portacths in 3 years and this is the best way for me to answer your question first you need to know that the portacath does have a needle that goes into it but not like a iv this is called a gripper and a nurse has to hold the portacath and stick it in this is a very starille progress but dont worry its sounds way more painful then it is although you do need surgery it is vary miner
once the portacath has a gripper in it (aka needle) then you can just screw the saline syringe on to end of the gripper and flush slowly then when your about half way draw back to make sure you got blood then flush the rest then do the same with heprine to make sure your blood doesn't clot

The limits to needle relocations depend on the specific circumstances, but common limitations include the size and type of needle being used, the material being pierced, and the number of times a needle has been relocated. Exceeding these limits can reduce needle effectiveness, cause tissue damage, or increase the risk of infection.
As long as there aren't any complications and you're dealing with a great experienced Sergent then it could take a minimum of 45 minutes to a maximum of 1 hour it doesn't take the long to insert a portacath
