➤ Why is tip location important for IV therapy?
Tip location affects infusion safety and efficacy. A peripheral IV tip in a smaller vein tolerates low‑osmolarity fluids, while a central tip dilutes medications rapidly in a large vessel. Proper placement reduces risks like phlebitis, thrombosis, infiltration, and extravasation, and it optimizes drug delivery and catheter longevity.
