IV backflow refers to the reverse flow of blood or medication from the vein back into the IV tubing. This can occur when there is a blockage or when the IV catheter is not properly secured in the vein. IV backflow can impact the administration of intravenous medications by reducing the effectiveness of the treatment and potentially causing complications such as infiltration or infection. It is important to monitor the IV site regularly to prevent backflow and ensure proper medication delivery.
