Filter by:This study is to demonstrate that the control ultralong intravenous catheter without the guide wire is equivalent to the experimental catheter with the guide wire. The hypothesis of this study is that the 6.35 cm 20G ultralong Ultrasound Guided Peripheral Intravenous (USPIV) will have no difference in survival compared to the 5.71 cm ultralong with wire USPIV.
The study will evaluate a new type of cyanoacrylate tissue glue Secure PortIV on the insertion site of the PICC (Peripherally inserted central catheter) or Midline catheters. Fixation of the catheter with the tissue glue should prevent incidents of mechanical and infective phlebitis as well as external migrations of the catheters.
Peripheral intravenous catheters have application such as fluid, blood, medication and feding fluids. Although it is a life-savingtool, it can lead to some complications as a result of incorrect applications. Phlebitis, which is defined as inflammation of the tunica intima layer of the vein, is characterized by pain, redness, tenderness, palpable stiffness and increased temperature. As can be seen during catheter application, it can develop within 48-96 hours after catheter removal. Instudies performed, the rate of phlebitis development was 0.1-63.3% in patients with peripheral intravenous catheters, in Turkey, this rate varies between 11% and 67%. Phlebitis; can be originated mechanical, chemical and bacterial. Various guidelines are available from evidence based on research results to prevent and reduce phlebitis development. In our country, National Vascular Access Management Guide is used. One of the principles in the National Guidelines for Vascular Access Management for the prevention of phlebitis is skin antisepsis. The guideline recommends a 70% alcohol solution containing>0.5% chlorhexidine for skin antisepsis and reports that povidone-iodine or only 70% alcohol solution can be used in the absence or contraindication. Infusion Nurses Society (INS, 2016) recommends using the 'Phlebitis Scale' in the early diagnosis of phlebitis. In this study, investigator aimed to compare the antiseptic effects of 2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol which are used as antiseptic in preventing phlebitis development while providing skin antisepsis, which is one of the basic principles in the application of peripheral intravenous catheter. This study is a randomized controlled clinical study and the population will consist of patients (participants)hospitalized in the Surgery -1 Department of Balcalı Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Çukurova University. As a data collection tool; 'Patient Information Form' and 'İnformation Form for İntravenous Catheter Application to the Patient' created by there searcher, to evaluate phlebitis formation "Phlebitis Scale'' which published by the Infusion Nurses Society (INS, 2016) will be used. A transparent millimeter ruler will be used
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Clobetasol ointment with nitroglycerin ointment on the prevention of superficial phlebitis caused by cannulation. This clinical trial was conducted on 110 patients admitted to the surgical ward, in three groups of Clobetasol, nitroglycerin, and control. The data collection tools included demographic information, information about intravenous treatment and phlebitis measurement scale. In the intervention groups, after venipuncture, 1.5 cm (about 2 g) of ointment was applied in the distal part of the Angio catheter and the site was dressed with sterile gauze. In three time periods of 24, 48 and 72 hours from the time of venipuncture.
Intermittent or continuous proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy are recommended for high-risk bleeding ulcers according to the French Society of Gastroenterology. The prevalence of incidence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion is high in geriatric acute ward (about 10% of severe vein infusion phlebitis). The primary of objective of the study is to determinate the prevalence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion in aging people. The secondary of objective of the study if to determinate the factors of risk of vein infusion phlebitis.
Pragmatic, randomized, single-blinded, controlled clinical trial of the effect of dressing and stabilization of peripheral intravenous catheters on the occurrence of phlebitis in adult patients attended at a hospital from the Western Brazilian Amazon.
This comparative treatment study aims to challenge a current clinical practice. Specifically, whether the use of ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter insertion results in lower post insertion failure rates with longer utility time compared to peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC) inserted in the standard manner during the emergency department (ED), observation and in-patient stay. There are two secondary aims to the study: a) determining if ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter insertion results in lower post removal complication rates compared to PIVCs inserted in the standard manner; and b) determining if catheter-to-vein ratio can predict post insertion success of PIVCs and what catheter-to-vein ratio is most successful. In this study, catheter-to-vein ratio is defined as the diameter of the lumen of the vein divided by the outside diameter of the catheter.
This is an interventional multi-centre study comparing two groups of general practitioners with or without an ultrasound scanner over a period of 6 months. The evaluation focuses on the management of patients for 8 pathologies: - Pneumonia - Pleural effusion - Renal colic - Hepatic colic or cholecystitis - Subcutaneous abscess or cyst - Fracture of long bones - Intra-uterine pregnancy or extra-uterine pregnancy or miscarriage - Phlebitis The principal hypothesis is that there are fewer complementary exams in the group of doctors using ultrasound scanners. The secondary hypotheses are: - There is better patient orientation (emergency care, specialist consultation, return home) in the group of doctors using the ultrasound scanners. - The global cost of the care is lower in the group of doctors using the ultrasound. - Using ultrasound during the consultation decreases the anxiety of the patient. - Using ultrasound increases the duration of the consultation. - There is no difference between the predicted and the real orientation of the patients.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of in-line filtration in reducing the incidence of postoperative phlebitis associated with peripheral short-term vascular access. In this controlled trial, 268 surgical patients are 1:1 randomised to in-line filtration (study group) and standard care (control group). The incidence of phlebitis (defined as Visual Infusion Phlebitis, VIP score≥2) within 48hrs postoperatively is compared between the two groups, as well as the onset and severity of phlebitis and the reasons for removal of the cannula. The lifespan of venous cannulae and cost-of-care are compared for the study and control groups through a Kaplan-Meier curve. Multivariate Cox regression analysis is performed to evaluate the effect of in-line filtration on risk of phlebitis and cannula removal.
This is a two-centers, open label, prospective, randomized, noninferiority controlled trial with cost-effectiveness analysis to verify if is non inferior to remove peripheral intravenous catheter according to clinical signs in relation to every 96 hours.
