What is the best angle for needle insertion during venipuncture and why?
Because the goal of the procedure is to place a plastic catheter into the vein. If you insert the needle/catheter vertically you will go through the vein. If you angle on insertion once placement in the vein is confirmed you can slide the hollow catheter off of the needle into the vein. The veins used for most IV's normally lie just under the skin. For this reason a shallow angle of insertion is used.
How do you insert an IV needle to SICU patients?
Inserting an IV needle in SICU patients involves first selecting an appropriate site, often in a peripheral vein, and preparing the area with antiseptic. After applying a tourniquet, the healthcare provider should stabilize the vein with one hand while using the other to insert the needle at a 15-30 degree angle. Once blood return is observed in the catheter, the needle is advanced slightly, and the catheter is threaded into the vein before removing the needle and securing the catheter with a dressing. It's essential to monitor for complications and ensure the IV is functioning properly after insertion.
What is the function of umbilical vein in fetus?

What is three differences in the composition of the blood in the umbilical artery and the umbilical vein?
Umbilical vein is saturated with oxygen and devoid of carbon bi oxide. Umbilical arteries has lost much of the oxygen and it is replaced with carbon bi oxide. Umbilical vein is full on digested food material, like amino acids, glucose, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. Umbilical arteries has got waste products of metabolism and lost much of the food material to the fetus. The blood pressure is umbilical vein is very low. The blood pressure in the umbilical arteries is high.
