Filter by:Introduction: Venous access is increasingly necessary and essential in healthcare institutions, where more than 75% of hospitalised patients have some type of vascular access device cannulated. Due to their pathophysiological characteristics and pharmacological needs, some patients require special catheters, such as midline or peripherally inserted central catheters. In an attempt to reduce the main complications related to these, the safety of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive has recently been demonstrated in the post-insertion treatment of vascular access devices. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the use of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive as fixation in the post-insertion of cannulated middle and central venous catheters with modified micro-Seldinger technique in acute hospitalized patients. Methods: Randomised clinical trial with two groups(1:1): control and intervention. The control group received a cure with sutureless device plus transparent membrane and the intervention group received the same cure plus the cyanoacrylate glue. The study was approved by the Drug Research Ethics Committee of the Lleida health region. health region. KEYWORDS: Cyanoacrylates; Vascular Access Device; Catheterization, Peripheral; Nursing Care; Randomized Controlled Trial.

This study is a randomized clinical trial conducted in a medical ward of an acute 580-bedded teaching hospital. One hundred fifty-eight older acute medical patients will be blindly randomly allocated to the control group or intervention group. The intervention will consist of a twice daily walking training, plus privileging trips to the toilet by walking and all daytime meals seated. Differences between groups will be measured at baseline (admission) and discharge. As primary outcomes, we defined the length of stay and the independence level. The independence level will be assessed at baseline (admission) and discharge by two distinct methods: through the Barthel Index and the Patient Classification Systems(PCS).
