When an IV is inserted incorrectly, it can cause complications such as infiltration (when fluid leaks into surrounding tissue), phlebitis (inflammation of the vein), hematoma (localized swelling filled with blood), or infection. It can also result in pain, discomfort, and difficulty administering medication or fluids properly. Promptly notifying healthcare providers is important to address any issues and prevent further complications.
