The nurse has a patient with a tunneled central line with a triple-lumen catheter. The insertion site is covered by an occlusive dressing with yesterday’s date on it. The nurse is to give an IV drug through the central line. The nurse would initially:
1.   use any of the three ports for delivery.
2.   change the occlusive dressing.
3.   affirm catheter placement by withdrawing 3 mL of blood.
4.   check dilution of the drug.


This is for my medical nursing class
