No one wants to harm any child. Also multiple attempts makes anyone embarassed. So may be the vein was not accessible so doctor had tried for multiple times. It is not a machine that one can put a value that you switch off and switch on the computer 5 times then go to service centre, so no number can be given for attempts.

There is no fixed no. Cannulation is very difficult in children as they are chubby and veins are difficult to visualise Multiple attempts can be required
