Filter by:Infections of the pleural space are common, and patients require antibiotics and chest drain placement to evacuate the chest from the infected fluid. Chest drains can get blocked by the drainage fluid and material. For this reason, it is thought that flushing the chest drain with saline solution, can help maintain the patency of the tube. This proposed study will evaluate the impact of regular chest drain flushing on the length of time to chest tube removal and total hospitalization as well as improvement in chest imaging and the need for additional interventions on the infected space.
Purpose: An evidence implementation of a randomized controlled trial for whether there is the difference in intermittent flushing 0.9% normal saline and heparin? Design: a single-blind randomized controlled trial Method: This study is based on the 5A (Ask, Acquire, Appraise, Apply, Audit) of evidence health care step, and design randomized controlled trial for evidence implementation. We will include inpatients over 20 years-old adults in New Taipei City TuCheng Hospital, Taiwan, who need administration medicine by port-a-catcher. The sample size is 192 according to G-power software. Random allocation software has using for block randomization, would assign to group A: flushing with 0.9% normal saline 10ml, group B: flushing with 0.9% normal saline 20ml, and group C: flushing with heparin 100 USP/ml. SPSS 20.0 software for statistical analysis, mean or standard deviation, one- way ANOVA would use.
women candidate for office hystroscopy were randomized to either flushing of the endocervix and endometrium with 4 ml lidocaine 2% diluted in 15 ml normal saline or 19 ml normal saline before office hystroscopy
