  • a correlational study to compare hospitalized adultsâ peripheral intravenous Catheter Complication rates between those indwelling 96 hours to those indwelling 72 â 96 hours
    International Journal of Nursing, 2013
    Co-Authors: Gloria Bailey Ascoli, Pamela B Deguzman, Aletha Rowlands
    Abstract:

    Background and Objectives: Care of peripheral intravenous Catheters (PIVs) is a major component of hospital nursing practice, yet little published evidence exists to help nurses determine the maximum time PIVs can remain indwelling to minimize the risk of Complications. This study sought to determine if PIVs that remained in place for > 96 hours would have the same Complication rate as those that remained in place for 72-96 hours.  Population: Hospitalized adults with a peripheral intravenous Catheter indwelling at least 72 hours. Methods: A retrospective correlational design explored the relationship between Complication rates with respect to these dwell times. Results: Of all charts reviewed, 490 met inclusion criteria, of which 110 were discontinued due to a Complication. The most common Complication was infiltration. The study found that there was no difference in Complication rate between those PIVs dwelling for 72-96 hours and those for greater than 96 hours. Interpretation and conclusion: This research supports the current Infusion Nurses Society recommendation to remove PIVs based on clinical indication rather than standard interval.

  • comparison of the Complications of Catheterization in the treatment of pleural effusion and ascites with modified single lumen central venous Catheter and common single lumen central venous Catheter
    国际医药卫生导报, 2018
    Co-Authors: Longwu Yu
    Abstract:

    Objective To compare the incidence of obstruction Complication of modified single-lumen central venous Catheter and common single-lumen central venous Catheter in the treatment of pleural effusion and ascites. Methods Ninety-eight patients with pleural effusion or ascites admitted to our department from January 2014 to December 2016 were randomly divided into two groups. 49 cases in the experimental group were treated with closed thoracic and abdominal drainage by modified single-lumen central venous Catheter, while 49 cases in the control group were treated with closed thoracic and abdominal drainage by common single-lumen central venous Catheter. The Complications after treatment in both groups were compared. Result There were 1 case (2.04%) of Catheter obstruction in the experimental group, and 13 cases (26.53%) in the control group, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion Modified single-lumen central venous Catheter can significantly reduce the Complications of Catheter obstruction in drainage of pleural effusion and ascites compared with common single-lumen central venous Catheter. Key words: Pleural effusion and ascites; Drainage; Central venous Catheter; Complication
