NIVAS Study Day 2016
Vascular Access in Clinical Practice
Thursday 29 September 2016
The Christie Education Centre, Manchester
National Infusion and
Vascular Access Society
From peripheral cannulation to long term vascular access this event will benefi t all levels of clinician skill in the insertion, use and maintenance of vascular access devices in clinical practice. The study day will cover current and advanced practices in peripheral cannulation using vein location technology such as ultrasound and infrared and varieties of PICC insertion techniques. For those already inserting central venous access devices there will be a focus on cosmetic considerations, the use of local anaesthetic and sedation, tunnelling techniques and port placement. There will be an opportunity to participate in practical workshops and taught theory sessions.
This study day is aimed at healthcare professionals or clinicians who are involved with vascular access devices in clinical practice.
