How Does a 250ml IV Bag Work?
As with other sizes and varieties of IV bags, 250ml IV bags are first filled up with a certain fluid, such as lactated Ringer’s or saline solution. When they are ready to be used, they will be primed and spiked, attached to an IV line or catheter, and suspended from an IV bag stand. The catheter will also be inserted into the patient, usually via the hand, arm, neck, or chest. The fluid from the 250ml IV bag can then flow at a steady and controlled rate from the IV through into the patient’s blood.
