Conditions studied: Pain, Acute, Satisfaction

In brief

IV placement is a common and necessary for surgical procedures. Unfortunately, pain associated with needle catheterization experienced during peripheral IV placement is a source anxiety and discomfort in many patients. The intensity of pain and distress caused by procedures can vary from mild to moderate, but also may be severe in certain patients resulting in numerous physiological, psychological, and emotional consequences. As such, the investigators ultimately aim to evaluate the techniques that could make the placement of the IV more comfortable.
