- Use a reduced angle of insertion, typically 10-15 degrees, to avoid puncturing through fragile vein walls.

- Select a smaller needle, like a 22G or 23G butterfly needle, to minimize trauma to delicate veins.

- Prioritize skin integrity by using gentle adhesive removal techniques or non-adhesive wraps to prevent tears.
