To prevent a vein from rolling during venipuncture, it's essential to stabilize the vein by applying gentle traction to the skin distal to the insertion site. Use your non-dominant hand to anchor the skin and keep it taut, which helps secure the vein in place. Additionally, selecting an appropriate vein, typically one that is palpable and visible, can reduce the likelihood of rolling. Proper positioning of the patient and using a larger gauge needle can also support successful venipuncture.
