1. remove the dressing, remove the catheter, dispose of the used equipment in the “sharps” container, and chart observations and actions. 2. observe the site for redness, swelling, and pain and put on sterile gloves. Remove the dressing catheter and chart findings and action. 3. observe the site for redness, swelling, and pain and put on clean gloves. Remove the dressing and catheter, place a 2 ? 2 dressing over the site, and chart findings and action. 4. observe the site for redness, swelling, and pain and put on clean gloves.
