Experimental Treatment
Group I: Single arm studyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients with a history of axillary surgical lymph node procedures (SLNP) presenting for routine radiographic scan will complete baseline measures: bilateral volumetric measurements and self-reported symptoms. Patients will undergo SOC contralateral arm intravenous access attempt. After one failed attempt, ipsilateral intravenous access instead of pedal or neck access will be offered per research protocol. Nursing documentation will reflect the failed venipuncture and categorize a reason for the failed attempt.
