The nurse should first determine if the IV tubing is kinked or the patient is lying on the tubing. The nurse should determine patency of the IV catheter by aspirating for a blood return. The catheter may be occluded or positional. The nurse should never forcefully flush an intravenous catheter. Forceful flush against an occlusion such as fibrin formation, medication precipitate, or a blood clot can cause fracture of the catheter and possible embolization.
