IV question

[opiophile72p]

I was curious if anyone else leaves a very small air gap in your rig (maybe .25 - .5 of a unit) I have found that when i do this, blood will slowly trickle into the rig when i hit the vein. i cant be the only person who uses this as a "trick."
I look forward to hearing back from everyone

I thought i was the only one! I shake some anyways and it was always a challenge for me to register. By doing this I didn't have to change position of my hand great trick. And cool someone else did it!

Thannks for the reply, i was starting to think noone else did this. It makes registering so much easier, you see the trickle and pull back, 99% of the time bammmm it registers. Glad someone else does this and im not alone. maybe more people just need to figure this out, as i have found NOTHING on the subject

My friends always thought I was crazy I didn't register at all. Once I seen the trickle of blood I brought it home. Brings back memories

Wait so let me get this straight - you leave a small bubble of air down the bottom of the barrel near the needle, then when you hit the vein, the blood trickles into this bubble, filling it up, at which point you inject?
