It discusses blood and injection procedures (including femoral stab, blood tubes, and IV injections), cardiology procedures (such as ECGs and cardiac monitors, chemical cardioversion, and thrombolysis), and respiratory procedures (including pleural tap and endotracheal intubation). Finally, the chapter covers urological procedures, gastroenterology procedures, and neurological procedures, as well as other procedures such as joint aspiration and injection, local anaesthetic, and suturing.
