Evaluation of Proximal Massage and Palm-to-Fist Tapping on Reducing the Risk of Phlebitis

Evaluation of the Effect of Proximal Massage and Palm-to-Fist Tapping on Reducing the Risk of Phlebitis Associated With Peripheral Venous Catheter Insertion

Phlebitis is a clinical condition that develops as a complication of peripheral venous catheter use. Peripheral venous catheterization is a common clinical procedure performed in hospitalized patients, as it provides vascular access for the administration of medications, blood products, and contrast media for diagnostic imaging studies. The pathophysiology of phlebitis involves inflammation of the vascular intima, leading to luminal narrowing and impaired blood flow. These changes are clinically manifested by local signs of inflammation, including erythema, edema, and pain, which have been objectively assessed using several validated clinical assessment scales.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Peripheral venous catheter insertion is a common clinical procedure performed in a substantial proportion of hospitalized patients. It is estimated that between 58.7% and 86.7% of hospitalized patients require a peripheral venous catheter during their hospital stay, and, ideally, catheter dwell time should not exceed six days. Indications for peripheral venous catheterization are diverse and include hemodynamic monitoring, intravenous administration of fluids and medications, blood transfusions, and the administration of contrast media for diagnostic imaging procedures.

Despite being a routine and relatively simple procedure, complications associated with peripheral venous catheter use continue to represent an important public health concern because they are associated with prolonged hospital stays, delayed patient discharge, and increased healthcare costs. The most common complications include phlebitis, infiltration, ecchymosis, extravasation, and embolism. These complications may occur while the catheter remains in place or even up to 96 hours after catheter removal. Therefore, given the widespread use of peripheral venous catheters and the potentially deleterious consequences of these complications, appropriate catheter management and care are essential to reduce their incidence.

Phlebitis is defined as inflammation of the venous intima and is clinically characterized by local inflammatory signs, including erythema, edema, and pain. Reported incidence rates range from 2% to 80%, depending largely on the control of modifiable risk factors. Three major categories of risk factors have been associated with the development of phlebitis. The first comprises patient-related factors, including age, sex, and pre-existing medical conditions. The second includes chemical factors, primarily related to the dose and osmolarity of intravenously administered medications. The third encompasses mechanical factors, such as catheter size, insertion site, and catheter material.

Several types of phlebitis have been described, each associated with different risk factors. Mechanical phlebitis is related to catheter size and material, inadequate catheter stabilization that facilitates catheter movement and subsequent irritation of the vascular wall, and catheter placement near a joint. Bacterial phlebitis develops as a consequence of poor aseptic technique or prolonged catheter dwell time. Finally, chemical phlebitis is associated with the characteristics of the cannulated vein and the type of infused solution, particularly highly acidic or alkaline solutions.

Eksperimentel: Effect of proximal massage and palm-to-fist tapping
The intervention will consist of two non-pharmacological components. Following hand hygiene, participants will receive gentle massage using the palmar surface of the fingers over an area located approximately 2-3 cm proximal to the peripheral intravenous catheter insertion site. Each session will last approximately 2-3 minutes and will be performed three times daily for up to four consecutive days or until catheter removal, whichever occurs first.
