The website describes how to safely place a small tube, called a cannula, into a vein near the surface of the skin. This is often done to give medicines or fluids directly into the blood. The process includes choosing the right vein, cleaning the area well, and using careful steps to avoid infection or injury. It also explains how to check that everything is working properly and what problems might happen so they can be fixed quickly if needed.
