OBJECTIVE: To determine if peripheral intravenous cannula dead space is taken into account when setting up intravenous infusions (in particular nitrate infusions) in the emergency department.
METHOD: A postal survey of UK emergency departments.
RESULTS: Of the 143 (58%) of UK departments who responded, only 15% reported priming the cannula before commencing the nitrate infusion.
CONCLUSIONS: Knowledge of peripheral intravenous cannula dead space in UK emergency departments is very poor and, as a result, there is probably significant widespread under treatment of patients in severe cardiogenic pulmonary oedema. Departments should amend their treatment guidelines to take account of peripheral cannula dead space.
