How should a gown be placed on the arms of a patient with an IV?

If the arms of the gown cannot be unsnapped to be put on, the IV can either be disconnected, the arm inserted into the sleeve and then reconnected, or the IV bag and line can go through the sleeve with the arm.


Explain why you should not take a blood pressure in a patient who has lessened circulation in his or her arm?

Taking blood pressure is not recommended on a limb with an IV because it can cause the vein to blow, resulting in a new IV line needing to be inserted. You can take a blood pressure on an IV limb when there is no other choice but try to do it far away from the IV site. If the IV is at the wrist/hand use the upper arm, if it's at the elbow use the lower arm close to the wrist.Good Luck I hope this helps.

It doesn't hurt much at the time but it can leave the muscle very sore for a few days after, so it is better to take it in the buttock because it is easier to cope with a sore bottom than a sore arm.
