    **ACTUAL NDC REPORTED: (B)(4).** PT REPORTED THAT WHEN SHE PUSHED THE PLUNGER OF THE 5 ML NORMAL SALINE FLUSH SYRINGE, OFTEN-TIMES IT WOULD "STICK" AND WHEN IT RELEASED WITH FURTHER GENTLE PRESSURE, IT WOULD PUSH ENOUGH SALINE THROUGH THE SYRINGE TO "BLOW" HER VEIN. SHE HAS SMALL VEINS AND USES A SMALL BUTTERFLY NEEDLE. SHE SAID SHE DOES TRY TO "LOOSEN" THE SYRINGE PLUNGER AHEAD OF TIME BY PUSH AND PULLING IT THRU THE BARREL BUT IT STILL HAS A TENDENCY TO "STICK" MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SLOWLY OR GENTLY START THE FLUSHING.
