IV Problems


One morning I looked over to see another patient's arm was grotesquely swollen because his IV had shifted and the solution was flowing into the tissue not the vein. His forearm reminded me of Pop-eye, hence the drawing. I showed this drawing to my mother (a real artist) who had done work on old cartoons like the original Pop-eye in her youth. Although her talent vastly exceeds mine (it was like having Rembrandt look over a kindergartner's fingerpainting) she liked the fact that I utilized Pop-eye. Oh, and naturally Bat liked the cat.
