venting Etymology: Fr, vent, breath (in IV therapy) a method for allowing air to enter the vacuum of the IV bottle and displace the IV solution as it flows out. Glass IV bottles are usually equipped with a venting tube attached to the primary IV tubing or to a vent port incorporated with the bottle stopper. Venting is not required with a plastic IV bag because the bag collapses as the fluid runs out. The air vent attached to primary IV tubing is removable to allow the injection of medication. venting, n an exit passage constructed in a casting mold to allow gases to escape during the casting process. venting Ventilation Psychology The verbalization* of one's 'emotional baggage' to another person; qvetching How to thank TFD for its existence?
