“…Ultrasound is also used in a therapeutic mode using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) . Furthermore, ultrasound is used to assist in interventional procedures such as in anaesthesiology, for needle guidance (Kuang et al, 2016;Menace et al, 2016;Raju & Grant, 2016), for implantation of catheters (Beigi et al, 2017;Fabiani et al, 2017;Menace et al, 2016) and needle biopsy (Giuliani et al, 2017;Ishii et al, 2017;Ophuis et al, 2017). Ultrasound often provides the means to visualize the location of catheters and needles in tissue.…”

Commercially available ultrasound quality assurance test phantoms rely on the long-term acoustic stability of the tissue-mimicking-material (TMM). Measurement of the acoustic properties of the TMM can be technically challenging, and it is important to ensure its stability. The standard technique is to film-wrap samples of TMM and to measure the acoustic properties in a water bath. In this study, a modified technique was proposed whereby the samples of TMM are measured in a preserving fluid that is intended to maintain their characteristics. The acoustic properties were evaluated using a broadband pulse-echo substitution technique over the frequency range 4.5-50 MHz at 0, 6 and 12 months using both techniques. For both techniques, the measured mean values for the speed of sound and attenuation were very similar and within the International Electrotechnical Commission-recommended value. However, the results obtained using the proposed modified technique exhibited greater stability over the 1-y period compared with the results acquired using the standard technique.

“…Once cannulated, the survival time of IV catheters is problematic, with early failure a common complication. Overall failure rates after successful IV cannulation for US-guided IVs is 45-56% when compared to traditional IV placement failure rates of 19-25% [3][4][5][6]17]. The most common cause of US-guided IV failure is infiltration, while other causes include catheter dislodgement and phlebitis [5,18].…”

“…The PVP attempts that are not successful reach 25% in individuals with difficult venous access (17) . Failure to perform the venipuncture may be associated to several factors, such as the patient's age and comorbidities, professional experience and catheter caliber (13)(14) .…”

“…The presence of the peripherical venous catheter exposes the patient to the risk of complications such as catheter occlusion, hematoma, infections, infiltration and phlebitis, which can be associated to insufficient knowledge of the nursing staff in the implementing and managing the venipuncture (10)(11) . Phlebitis is one of the most frequent complications, with incidence of up to 70% among patients, causing pain, sensitivity to palpitation, erythema, swelling and redness at the insertion site, being associated to the length of stay, material and size of the catheter, and type of administered infusion (11,17) .…”

Hypermedia on peripheral venipuncture: effectiveness in teaching nursing students

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of an educational hypermedia in the knowledge of Nursing academics on peripheral venipuncture. Method: Quasi-experimental study with pre and post-test design. Results: The mean number of right answers of the 73 individuals who participated in the study, in the pre-test, was 7.7 (DP = 1.05), and 8.3 in the post-test (DP = 0.74). The comparation of pre and post hypermedia mean number of right answers showed significant difference (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Hypermedia is a strategy that increases knowledge and is feasible in the teaching-learning process, being useful as a support tool for teachers and for the development of undergraduate Nursing students.
