“…(4,(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13) Concerning the catheter characteristics, studies appoint that caliber 20G is the most used, (10)(11)(12)(13)(14) location in upper left limb (3,10) and forearm region, (1,8,9,13) successful puncture upon the first attempt, (1,4) and dwelling time superior to 72 hours, (8)(9)(10)13,15) similar to the present findings. The use of antimicrobials in this research differed from studies that appoint frequent use.…”

“…(22) In line with the research findings, a study appointed grade I phlebitis as the most frequent in 94.4% of the catheters and grade III was the most severe. (13) Other studies appoint that grade I predominates in 77.66%, (22) 46.2% (10) and 41.6%, (8) followed by 22% grade II, (22) 40%, (10) and 37.5%.

Objective: To analyze the complications deriving from the use and type of peripheral venous catheter in adults. Methods: Randomized clinical trial; undertaken at a teaching hospital between 2012 and 2015; 169 adults were included who were hospitalized at clinical and surgical services and needed peripheral venipuncture with an expected dwelling time of more than 96 hours. Through systemized randomization, 90 participants were allocated to the trial group (complete safety catheter) and 79 to the control group (short flexible catheter). Results: The general complications rate was 55.62%, with 18.34% of phlebitis, 11.83% infiltration, 11.24% obstruction and 9.47% traction. No significant difference was found between the groups for the occurrence of complications, phlebitis, obstruction and traction. Conclusion: The complication rate in peripheral venous catheterization was high but, when compared, without a statistically significant difference, the complete safety catheter showed lower complication rates after the fourth day of survival. ResumoObjetivo: Analisar as complicações decorrentes do uso e tipo de cateter venoso periférico em adultos. Métodos: Ensaio clínico randomizado; realizado em um hospital de ensino, no período de 2012 a 2015; incluiu-se 169 adultos internados em unidades clínicas e cirúrgicas que necessitaram de punção venosa periférica e com permanência prevista de mais de 96 horas. A randomização aleatória sistematizada alocou 90 participantes no Grupo Experimental (cateter de segurança completo) e 79 no Grupo Controle (cateter curto flexível). Resultados: A taxa geral de complicações foi 55,62%, houve 18,34% de flebite, infiltração 11,83%, obstrução 11,24% e tração 9,47%. Não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos para a ocorrência de complicações, flebite, obstrução e tração. Conclusão: A taxa de complicações no cateterismo venoso periférico foi alta, mas quando comparados, sem diferença estatística significativa, o cateter de segurança completo teve taxas menores de complicações após o quarto dia de sobrevida.Brazilian Clinical Trial Registers (ReBEC): RBR-46ZQR8

“…The transparent dressing was the most common type of dressing used to secure the PVC. The main advantage of these dressings is that they allow for longer intervals between dressing changes because they allow the the catheter site to be monitored visually; however, the costs of this type of dressing are a significant disadvantage (Tertuliano, Borges, Fortunato, Oliveira, & Poveda, 2014). In most of the PVCs observed, the dressing was dry.…”

Background: Phlebitis is a major adverse event. It has a high prevalence, ranging from 25.8% to 55.6%, which makes it an epidemiologically relevant phenomenon. Objective: To identify the prevalence of peripheral intravenous catheter-related phlebitis in patients admitted to a hospital unit in the North region of Portugal in May 2017, as well as to analyze its associated risk factors. Methodology: Prospective cohort study. Data were collected in May 2017 at a hospital unit in the North region of Portugal using the Portuguese version of the Phlebitis Scale, as well as patients' medical records for the collection of sociodemographic and clinical data. The sample was composed of 58 patients. Results: The participants had a mean age of 64 years, 53.4% of them were women, and the mean dwell time of the peripheral venous catheter (PVC) was 3.25 days. The prevalence of phlebitis was 36.7%, with a predominance of Grade 1 phlebitis (63%). Conclusion:The occurrence of phlebitis was associated with the PVC dwell time. Further studies and interventions should be conducted to raise nurses' awareness of the importance of assessing the type and severity of phlebitis.
