TUBING TUNNEL Insert the IV tubing under the Velcro of the blood pressure cuff.

BEDSIDE ARRANGING
Slip the IV Tubing Inside the BP Cuff

When the blood pressure cuff must be on the same arm as the IV, wrap the BP cuff around the arm and insert the IV tubing under the Velcro of the BP cuff. This way, the IV won't back up every time the BP cycles.
