OBS

Le terme GVO (garder veine ouverte) ou TVO (tenir veine ouverte) est le débit minimal de perfusion afin que le soluté demeure en place tout en évitant qu'un processus de coagulation s'active à l'intérieur du cathéter. Le débit minimal pour garder la veine ouverte chez l'adulte est d'environ 15 ml/heure. Ce débit peut varier selon les centres et varie généralement entre 15 et 30 ml/heure.
