When doing venipuncture on an elderly client whose veins are hard to find, the nurse should touch the skin around the insertion site.

Location for Venipuncture:

  • The two veins most frequently utilized for venipuncture are -
  1. the cephalic and
  2. median cubital veins.
  • Possible locations include the dorsum of the arm's basilic vein or the dorsal veins of the hands.
  • The basilic vein, which is found on the pinkie side of the arm and is adjacent to the brachial arteries and median nerve, must only be utilized if there are no other more noticeable arm veins, due to its close closeness to both.
  • Only in extreme cases can veins in the ankle and foot be used. Avoid touching the veins on the inside of the wrist. A few additional websites ought to be avoided as well.

20% of wood is damaged and thrown away and only 20 kilograms is left vv is its original weight​
sesenic [268]
The original weight is 4.

Explanation:

20%= 1/5 if u don’t know the percentage then u can simply by doing..

20/100 then u divide it. U can do this by any other numbers such as 2, 4,5,10 and 20. U can do which ever way u like but i would recommend doing it either by 10 or 20.

So if we divide it by 20 we do...

20/100 divided by 20= 1/5

Or

20/100 divided by 10= 2/10

2/10 divided by 2 = 1/5

You can see the bigger the number that fits in is faster, although u can do it any way u feel like doing.

So we have got 1/5 from 20%. Now we do...

1/5 divided by 20. So when we do this, we use the bottom number to divide it and the top number to times it.

So..

1/5 u could use as 20 divided by 5..
Then 1 times the number that u get from ur before sum.

The answer is 4.

Because 1/5= 20 divided by 5 = 4
Since we have a 1 left we do..

4 times 1 which is... 4.

( u don’t need to show these parts in doing ur working, but i am doing these so they can help u understand)

So the answer is 4 and is the original weight.

I hope this is clear and helps u! :D
