[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 314998, member: 1963"] Dreamer, why in heck didn't they just haul this kid into OR and do a 'cut-down' for a deep leg vein? It's done all the time on infants and very ill elderly. It's a simple procedure. Just a tiny cut in the flesh to expose the leg vein and then insert an IV type catheter right in it. Either doing a cut down, or installing a PICC line should have been done long before all the needle sticks and stuff. [/QUOTE]
