These are all of the things that I wrote down, as she was saying what all they had done. I know that when my kitty was sick, a different tech also used that term. I dunno.  |
This makes sense
! I must've misread somewhere...I thought the vet or tech just said "catheter" to you. In the human field, when catheter is used
alone, it's usually thought of as a "urinary catheter", whereas an IV Catheter is usually called an "IV" or as above (like you just wrote) an "IV Catheter" or "IV line" / "IV access" -- but I haven't heard "catheter" alone like that, except as urinary (again, in human). I.e., in the human field, if someone said "they have a catheter and an IV in" - to me, that would mean "they have a urinary cath in and an IV line in". Sorry if I was confused and/or confused things

I'm just glad to hear she is home and on the mend, this is wonderful
