Effects of a New Fixation Method in Children on the Complication Rates of Peripheral Venous Catheters
Öz
Peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion is the most frequently used invasive intervention that is performed in more than 80% of hospitalized children. It is a known that seemingly innocent PIVC may result in various morbidities such as phlebitis, infection, extravasation, and may even lead to mortality. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of a new fixation board on PIVC lifespan and complications rates in pediatric patients undergoing PIVC insertion in the joint area. A total of 49 patients who were treated in the pediatric surgery ward between June and July 2018 and who underwent PIVC insertion were prospectively followed. The patients were divided into the following two groups: Group 1 in which a fixation boardwas used and Group 2, which was allocated as the control group using Hypoallergenic Elastic Fixation Tape. The effects of cannula fixation device, cannula gauge, and age on PIVC lifespan and complication rates were comparatively evaluated between the two groups. Although the complication rate in this study was significantly reduced, no significant result was obtained regarding PIVC lifespan.
