Clinical Trial Summary

Nurses frequently use peripheral venous catheters in hospitals to provide medications and fluids for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Peripheral venous catheter use brought various problems, including phlebitis, infiltration, extravasation, ecchymosis, thrombophlebitis, and embolism, in addition to being a regularly utilized nursing practice. The literature used techniques like heat application, fist clenching, and proximal massage to lower the risk of thrombophlebitis and associated problems.


Clinical Trial Description

Between October and November 2022, individuals who received orthopedic care at a state hospital and had peripheral venous catheters participated in the trial as a randomized controlled experimental study. The control group received routine nursing care, while the experimental group received proximal massage and palm fist exercises. The numbers used to identify the control and experimental groups were drawn at random from a table of random numbers, and each group had 36 patients. The researcher used the "Patient Information Form," "Plebitis Risk Scale Due to Peripheral Venous Catheter," and "Plebitis Diagnostic Scale" to collect data using in-person interviews and observational methods. The p value for statistical significance is p<0.05. Proximal massage: For a total of 5 to 10 minutes, twice daily for 4 days, between 30 seconds- 1 minute in sessions of approximately 20 strokes, a light massage is administered utilizing the palm surfaces of the fingers. Under the researcher's supervision, participants in the activity known as fist clenching squeeze a soft palm ball 20 times in each of twice a day for four days, lasting between 30 Seconds - 1 minute. ;
