  schema:description "If your line or port will not give blood back or will not flush, the nurse first checks for simple causes such as a kink, a closed clamp or a needle that has slipped. If a clot is the likely cause, a small dose of clot-dissolving medicine can be left in the line for half an hour to two hours. It should never be forced."@en ;
