The intravenous applications are the most common type of such interventions. It is underlined that in cases where the peripheral intravenous catheter is not properly secured in place, even a minor movement inside the vein would result in injury of vein.
The insertion of peripheral intravenous catheter is a common practice. This is a randomized controlled prospective study aiming at investigating the effectiveness of use of transparent film dressing for peripheral intravenous catheter.
The universe of this study included inpatients in the Internal Diseases clinic of a University Hospital, and the sample included a total of 110 peripheral intravenous catheters that were calculated by power analysis. The patient identification form, the peripheral venous catheter and treatment information form, and the visual infusion phlebitis identification scale were used to collect data. The forms were completed by the investigators on the basis of daily observations. The data were assessed by the percentage, chi-square test, and logistic regression analysis via the software SPSS 20.00.
The individuals in the study group and the control group included in the sample are comparable in terms of gender, having/not having a chronic disease, the site of peripheral intravenous catheter, use of antibiotics, intravenous fluid therapy, and mean age. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups. There was a significant relationship between the dwell time for the catheter and development of any complications and the groups.
The use of transparent film dressing for insertion of peripheral intravenous catheter can be recommended as it the dwell time for the catheter and incidence of complications.
静脉内应用是此类干预措施中最常见的类型。需要强调的是，在外周静脉导管未妥善固定到位的情况下，即使静脉内有轻微移动也会导致静脉损伤。
外周静脉导管插入是一种常见操作。这是一项随机对照前瞻性研究，旨在调查使用透明薄膜敷料对外周静脉导管的有效性。
本研究的总体包括某大学医院内科门诊的住院患者，样本通过功效分析计算得出，共包括110根外周静脉导管。使用患者识别表、外周静脉导管及治疗信息表和视觉输液静脉炎识别量表收集数据。表格由研究者根据日常观察填写。数据通过SPSS 20.00软件进行百分比、卡方检验和逻辑回归分析评估。
样本中研究组和对照组的个体在性别、有无慢性病、外周静脉导管部位、抗生素使用、静脉输液治疗及平均年龄方面具有可比性。两组之间无统计学显著差异。导管留置时间与任何并发症的发生及分组之间存在显著关系。
外周静脉导管插入时使用透明薄膜敷料是值得推荐的，因为它可导管留置时间及并发症发生率。
