This article provides information for nursing and medical teams involved in the selection of intravenous (i.v.) devices for patients requiring venous access. For more than 25 years central venous access has been the mainstay for delivery of a variety of i.v. therapies. However, although the use of central venous access has facilitated innovative patient care, it has also precipitated many complications arising from inappropriate catheter selection. The information contained in this article is not intended to replace local policies but is offered as a reference for those involved in developing protocols for assessment of patients requiring therapies via the i.v. route. It aims to assist nurses in relation to matching an appropriate access device to individual patient requirements.
本文为参与为需要静脉通路的患者选择静脉(IV)装置的护理和医疗团队提供信息。25多年来,中心静脉通路一直是各种静脉治疗的主要手段。然而,尽管中心静脉通路的使用促进了创新的患者护理,但它也引发了许多因导管选择不当而产生的并发症。本文所含信息并非旨在取代当地政策,而是作为参与制定通过静脉途径进行治疗的患者评估方案的人员的参考。其目的是帮助护士根据个体患者的需求匹配合适的通路装置。
