I worked in a pediatric hospital operating room and cases are scary. If you notice your child is frothing at the mouth, get to the emergency room immediately. Button batteries kill.

Thanks for sharing... Now I have some cooking ideas during the next power outage... Steak au poivre, anyone?

A powerful reminder that something so small can create a life-threatening emergency. ⚠️ Awareness matters, especially for parents. Keep button batteries out of children’s reach, and if one is swallowed, seek emergency medical care immediately. 🙏🏼

I explained about this the other day. It's a common thing with babies and toddlers and honey can save lives before the matter gets to the ER. Have a short read. Cheers 🥂 🙂

When an IV (intravenous line) isn’t placed correctly, several problems can happen depending on where the fluid or needle goes. Here are the main complications: 🔹 **Infiltration** This happens when the IV fluid leaks into the surrounding tissue instead of the vein. Signs: swelling, cool skin, tightness, pain around the site. 🔹 **Extravasation** Similar to infiltration, but more serious. This occurs when irritating medications (like some chemotherapy drugs) leak into tissues and can cause tissue damage or skin necrosis. 🔹 **Hematoma** If the vein is punctured improperly, blood can leak under the skin causing bruising and swelling. 🔹 **Phlebitis** Inflammation of the vein. Signs: redness, warmth, pain, and a hard vein along the IV line. 🔹 **Infection** If the IV site isn’t sterile or stays too long, bacteria can enter the bloodstream and cause serious infections like **Sepsis**. 🔹 **Air embolism (rare but serious)** If air enters the IV line, it can travel in the bloodstream and block blood flow. 🔹 **Nerve damage (rare)** If the needle hits a nerve, it can cause sharp pain, numbness, or tingling. In short: A misplaced IV can cause pain, swelling, infection, or in rare cases, serious complications. That’s why nurses and doctors carefully check for proper placement before giving fluids or medicines. If you want, I can also explain how healthcare professionals confirm that an IV is correctly placed 💉.
