Abstract
Background: Failure to obtain intravenous access with cannulation can cause delays that impact patient safety. Difficult cases are escalated to senior members of the clinical team and then the anaesthetics department, which delays successful cannulation. The use of ultrasound (US) guidance has been shown to improve overall success of cannulation, particularly in patients with difficult venous access. US guidance can also ensure timely cannulation and help avoid dose omissions, especially pertinent when considering antibiotic administration.
