Patients with difficult intravascular access (DIVA) are common, yet the condition is often ignored or poorly managed, leading to patient dissatisfaction and misuse of health care resources. This study sought to assess all published risk factors associated with DIVA in order to promote prospective identification and improved management of patients with DIVA. A systematic literature review on risk factors associated with DIVA was conducted. Risk factors published in ≥4 eligible studies underwent a multivariate meta-analysis of multiple factors (MVMA-MF) using the Bayesian framework...

The most commonly used vascular access is the peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC). However, it can trigger complications and the occurrence of adverse events, such as phlebitis. This study evaluated the variables that are associated with the occurrence of phlebitis in medical and surgical inpatient units. This is an observational, retrospective, case-control study in medical and surgical hospitalization units of a private general hospital in the city of São Paulo. Participants were an average age of 66...

Complications of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) remain a major contributor to health care costs and are a patient safety problem. The objective of this cross-sectional descriptive study was to examine the prevalence of complications and factors associated with complications from peripheral intravenous fluid administration. The study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Thailand. The instruments were developed from the literature review. Data were analyzed using SPSS statistics, version 22...

Peripheral intravenous cannulation and venipuncture are among the most common invasive procedures in health care and are not without risks or complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the current training provided to nursing and midwifery undergraduate students. Student knowledge, attitude, practice, and performance regarding these procedural skills were assessed. A knowledge, attitude, and practices survey was disseminated to final year nursing and midwifery students as the first phase of this study...

Ultrasound-guided insertion of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) is recommended for patients with difficult intravenous access, but access to ultrasound equipment is often limited to specialty departments. Compact, affordable handheld ultrasound devices are available, but the extent of their clinical adoption and impact on patient outcomes is unknown. This scoping review aimed to explore evidence regarding handheld and pocket ultrasound devices for PIVC insertion. Databases were searched for studies published in English between January 2000 and January 2023 evaluating handheld or pocket ultrasound devices weighing ≤3 kg for PIVC insertion...

Invasive interventions, such as peripheral intravenous cannula, port needle placement, and blood collection, are often required for both inpatient and outpatient follow-up patients with hematological malignancies and hematopoietic stem cell transplants. This prospective, randomized controlled experimental study assessed the effect of orange oil inhalation used in aromatherapy on pain and anxiety levels in invasive interventions with hematological malignancies and hematopoietic stem cell transplants. It was conducted prospectively with 80 patients with hematological malignancies who were treated in the adult bone marrow transplant unit and adult hematology service of a private hospital between May 2021 and April 2022...

There is a growing body of evidence about physiological changes with age that impact fluid and electrolyte balance. It is important that infusion nurses have knowledge in managing care for geriatric patients so they can identify these changes when they are exhibited. Knowing how to minimize the effect of these changes on the health of older adults is critical. The infusion nurse with knowledge of geriatric-focused care can avoid complications and critical illness in older adults. In addition, it is important to provide specific patient education that is grounded in geriatric best practices...

This study evaluated peripheral intravenous catheter insertion by licensed practical nurses in a simulated scenario. This cross-sectional and descriptive study was performed in a general hospital's simulation center located in Brazil, from January to October 2020. The authors developed a tool from the leading guidelines to measure peripheral intravenous catheter insertion performance in 60 licensed practical nurses. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, with proportions for categorical variables and analytical statistics to denote significance, using SPSS version 22...

PowerGlide Pro™ Midline Catheters, manufactured by Becton Dickinson, are marketed as capable of obtaining blood specimens. However, there is insufficient research to validate the laboratory results collected from these specialty catheters. The purpose of this research study was to determine whether blood samples obtained via venipuncture and samples obtained directly from a midline catheter are clinically equivalent. A qualitative study was completed per recommendations published in Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) standards EP-05-A3 to determine whether the 2 modalities are clinically equivalent...

Volumetric infusion pumps are used together with infusion sets to deliver medication to patients. Flow rate errors leading to overinfusion or underinfusion are known problems with these devices. Recently, numerous underinfusion flow rate errors were reported at a Swedish hospital. This experimental study reports on the investigation of these errors and specifically investigates the effect of operating the pump with a defective infusion set that has a visible elongation of the silicone segment of the set. Pump flow rate accuracy testing was performed using a gravimetric method...

Biologic drugs are large, complex molecules produced through biotechnology. A biosimilar is a biologic product that is highly similar to an already approved biologic (reference product), with no clinically meaningful differences in purity, safety, or efficacy; as such, a biosimilar does not need to undergo the same level of study in a clinical trial program as the original reference product. Due to the potential impact of biosimilars on patient access and health care systems, the US Food and Drug Administration introduced an abbreviated pathway for approving biosimilars (351[k]) in 2009...

Natalizumab (TYSABRI®) was the first high-efficacy monoclonal antibody disease-modifying therapy (DMT) approved as a monotherapy for the treatment of adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), including clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting MS, and active secondary progressive MS. Because natalizumab is administered by intravenous infusion, infusion nurses play a key role in the care of natalizumab-treated patients. In the 16 years since approval, substantial data have been gathered on the long-term, real-world effectiveness and safety of natalizumab...

Hyperemesis gravidarum can result in life-threatening physical and psychological maternal morbidity, including severe dehydration, weight loss, electrolyte imbalance, depression, and suicidal ideation. The reported prevalence of hyperemesis gravidarum ranges from 0.3% to 3.6%. The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate what blogs can tell us about women's experiences of hyperemesis gravidarum. Thirty-three blogs written by hyperemesis gravidarum survivors posted on Hyperemesis Australia's website were analyzed using Krippendorff's qualitative content analysis method...

The objective of this study was to compare hemolysis marker levels after in vitro infusion of red blood cells (RBCs) according to storage time, infusion rate, and peripheral intravenous catheter size. This is an experimental study with randomly administered RBCs in quintuplicate, according to storage time shorter than and longer than 14 days, as well as infusion rate (50 mL/h and 100 mL/h) using catheters with calibers of 14-, 18-, and 20-gauge. Aliquots were collected from RBCs (V1), after equipment and catheter (V2) free-flow filling and after controlled infusion through the catheter (V3)...

Placement of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) is a frequent occurrence. Yet, PIVCs consistently require multiple attempts for successful cannulation, leading to an increased use of resources and risk of complications. Even though hospitals have established vascular access teams to improve outcomes and increase longevity of PIVCs, not every facility has one, and some struggle to meet demand. In these cases, PIVC placement depends on the confidence and skills of bedside nurses. Difficult access risk identification tools, as well as vein visualization technologies, like near infrared (nIR), have been developed to assist nurses with cannulation...
