C To keep IV lines open

Explanation:

The main purpose of using a heparin "lock-flush," such as HepFlush is in order to keep IV catheter lines open and flowing correctly as it should be. This is because Heparin acts as an anticoagulant which keeps blood from clotting inside the catheter and instead allows it to flow smoothly and make sure everything is working correctly.
