The Effect of Care Bundle in Preventing the Frequency of Peripheral Intravenous Catheter-related Infiltration and Phlebitis in the Pediatric Emergency Department

The Effect of Care Bundle in Preventing the Frequency of Peripheral Intravenous Catheter-Related Infiltration and Phlebitis in the Pediatric Emergency Department: A Quasi-Experimental Study

This quasi-experimental study evaluates the effectiveness of a care bundle in preventing peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC)-related infiltration and phlebitis in pediatric emergency department patients. The care bundle includes interventions such as nurse education, hand hygiene, aseptic techniques, and the use of antiseptic solutions (2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol) for PIVC insertion and maintenance. The study compares the incidence of infiltration and phlebitis between the intervention and control groups.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

This study was conducted in the Pediatric Emergency Department of Dr. Sadi Konuk Education and Research Hospital, involving 200 pediatric patients, with 100 in the intervention group and 100 in the control group. The intervention group received a care bundle, which included education on peripheral intravenous catheter management, hand hygiene, aseptic techniques, and the use of antiseptic solutions (2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol). The control group received standard care according to routine practice. The incidence of infiltration and phlebitis was compared between the groups, with data collected using the Visual Infusion Phlebitis Assessment Scale (VIPAS) and Pediatric Peripheral Intravenous Infiltration Scale (PPIIS).

Beskrivning

Inclusion Criteria:

Children admitted to the Pediatric Emergency Department

First-time peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion Ages between 28 days to 18 years

At least 6 hours of observation after catheter insertion

Fluid administration in the observation area (e.g., 5% dextrose + 0.45% NaCl + 5/10 cc potassium)

Written informed consent obtained from parents/legal guardians

Children willing to participate in the study

Exclusion Criteria:

Children with skin problems (e.g., epidermolysis bullosa)

Children allergic to products used in the care bundle

Children transferred to intensive care or another department after PIVC insertion

Children with clinical conditions that prevent standard care bundle application (e.g., extreme agitation, inability to immobilize extremities)

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: Intervention Group (Care Bundle)

The intervention group will receive a care bundle consisting of the following:

Nurse Education on peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) management.

Hand Hygiene and adherence to aseptic techniques during PIVC insertion.

Use of 2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol antiseptic solutions for PIVC insertion.

Hydrocolloid transparent adhesive bandage for stabilization of the catheter.

Nurses will avoid performing more than two attempts for PIVC insertion.

Aseptic technique will be strictly followed during PIVC insertion and maintenance.

The intervention group will receive a care bundle designed to reduce peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC)-related complications (infiltration and phlebitis). The bundle includes the following components:

Nurse Education: Training on PIVC management and best practices.

Hand Hygiene: Emphasis on proper hand hygiene before and after each insertion and maintenance procedure.

Aseptic Techniques: Strict adherence to aseptic technique during PIVC insertion and maintenance.

Antiseptic Solutions: Use of 2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol for skin preparation and catheter insertion.

Stabilization: Use of hydrocolloid transparent adhesive bandages for catheter fixation to prevent dislodgement and reduce irritation.

Insertion Attempts: Limiting the number of attempts to a maximum of two to reduce trauma to the insertion site.

Monitoring and Documentation: Regular assessment of the PIVC site for complications and accurate documentation by nursing staff.

Inget ingripande: Control Group (Standard Care)

The control group will receive standard care as per routine practice in the pediatric emergency department:

Standard peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) insertion procedures as performed by clinical staff.

No additional interventions such as nurse education or the specific antiseptic solutions or stabilization methods will be applied.
