Additional Circular Dressing Material

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The study was conducted to determine the effect of fixing peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) with additional circular dressing material on the duration of PIVC stay and complications related to peripheral intravenous catheterization. In our study, a comparison was made of PIVCs applied to patients in the control (fixation of PIVC with a sterile transparent dressing) and intervention (fixation of PIVC with a sterile transparent dressing and application of an elastane circular dressing on it) groups in a public hospital in Turkey. All-cause PIVC failure was significantly higher in the intervention group (70.2%) compared to the control group (45.5%). It has been determined that fixing the PIVC with additional circular dressing material prolongs the duration of PIVC stay at the site.

Clinical Trial Description

This study was conducted as a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of fixing the peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) with additional circular dressing material on the duration of stay of the peripheral intravenous catheter and complications related to peripheral intravenous catheterization. In our study, a comparison was made of PIVCs applied to patients in the control (fixation of PIVC with a sterile transparent dressing) and intervention (fixation of PIVC with a sterile transparent dressing and application of an elastane circular dressing on it) groups in a public hospital in Turkey. In our study, PIVC failure was defined as PIVC removal before the end of treatment due to phlebitis, infiltration, accidental dislodgement, occlusion, and leakage. A total of 91 (47 intervention, 44 control) participants were included in the study between April 2023 and September 2023. All-cause PIVC failure was significantly higher in the intervention group (70.2%) compared to the control group (45.5%). It was determined that fixing the PIVC with additional circular dressing material prolongs the duration of PIVC stay at the site. It is recommended that this study be conducted with a different patient population and multicenter. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
