Objective: Intravenous infusion complications are placing patients at high risk and creating an economic burden for hospitals and health institutions. Available infusion pumps provide to decrease complications and patient safety. However, life-threatening complications may occur in patients with infusion pumps. This study was performed to determine of incidence of intravenous complications and influencing factors in patients with infusion pumps. Method: The study utilized causal model comparison and cross sectional design and was carried out with 120 patients monitored with infusion pump in a single university hospital in Turkey. Independent variables such as patients’ demographic data, catheter type, catheter site, intravenous infusion type, infusion duration, and total infusion volume in patients with infusion pump that influencing complications were investigated in this study. Results: Intravenous infusion complications developed in 10% of patients in present study. Thrombophlebitis 6.7% was the most frequent complication. The study did not reveal any significant difference between the patient's age, gender, number of comorbidities and incidence of intravenous infusion complications p>0.05 . Statistically significant differences were found between the catheter site, infusion duration, total infusion volume and incidence of intravenous infusion complications p

İnfüzyon pompası ile izlenen hastalarda intravenöz komplikasyonların belirlenmesi

Öz

Amaç: İntravenöz infüzyon komplikasyonları hastaları yüksek risk altında bırakarak, hastaneler ve sağlık kuruluşları için ekonomik yük oluşturmaktadır. Mevcut infüzyon pompaları, komplikasyonları azaltmakta ve hasta güvenliğini sağlamaktadır. Buna rağmen, infüzyon pompası ile takip edilen hastalarda sağlığı tehdit edici komplikasyonlar gelişebilmektedir. Bu araştırma infüzyon pompası ile izlenen hastalarda gelişen komplikasyon sıklığını ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Nedensel karşılaştırma modeli ve kesitsel tasarımın kullanıldığı bu araştırma, Türkiye’de bulunan bir üniversite hastanesinde, infüzyon pompası ile izlenen 120 hastayla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada infüzyon pompası ile izlenen hastaların demografik verileri, kateter tipi, katater bölgesi, intravenöz infüzyon tipi, infüzyon süresi ve toplam infüzyon hacmi gibi bağımsız değişkenlerin infüzyon komplikasyonu gelişme sıklığına etkisi incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Araştırmada hastaların %10`unda infüzyon komplikasyonu gelişmiştir. Tromboflebit %6,7 en sık gelişen komplikasyon olmuştur. Hastaların yaşı, cinsiyeti, eşlik eden komorbid hastalık sayısı ile intravenöz infüzyon komplikasyon sıklığı arasında istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır p>0,05 . Kateter bölgesi, infüzyon süresi, total infüzyon hacmi ile intravenoz infüzyon komplikasyonu arasında anlamlı bir fark olduğu belirlenmiştir p
