This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Peripheral Vascular Disease Access Device (PVAD) assessment for the prevention of phlebitis. The method used is a literature review by searching for articles in the Scopus, ScienceDirect, CINAHL, Pubmed, Oxford, and SAGE databases. The results showed that patient assessment on intravenous therapy is helpful for patients undergoing intravenous therapy. Assessment made during insertion can increase the safety of administering intravenous therapy. Nurses' perceptions of the safety of intravenous administration are increasing. Some of the literature states that the assessment does not have a standard. This assessment is appropriate for identifying the need for intravenous therapy and facilitating intravenous therapy intervention. An understanding of the administration of intravenous therapy supports the implementation of the assessment. In conclusion, peripheral vascular access device (PVAD) assessment has clinical value in screening for phlebitis prevention.  Keywords: Phlebitis Prevention, Assessment, Peripheral Devices

Introduction: Most nurses who were infected by COVID-19 experienced Post-acute Sequelae of COVID-19. Post-acute Sequelae of COVID-19 has caused fatigue, shortness of breath, memory impairment, and joint pain which make nurses unable to work optimally.  Objective: This research aimed to analyze the association between BMI, depression, and post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 among nurses in Lamongan, Indonesia. Methods: This was a cross-sectional research which involved all nurses in Lamongan who were infected by COVID-19. The samples were obtained by purposive sampling from June to July 2022. The data were gathered by using questionnaires. Depression was measured by PHQ-9 questionnaire to which then analyzed by logistic regression test (α≤0.05). Results: A total of 226 nurses who were infected by COVID-19 participated in this study. From the number, 45.1% were males and 54.9% were females. 96% were working in the health services while 4% were working in the educational institutions. 17.6% had history of diseases while 82.4% had no history of diseases. The results indicated that gender was not associated with both sequelae of cough and fatigue (p>0.05). BMI was not associated with either sequelae of cough or fatigue (p>0.05). Depression did not affect sequelae of cough (p=0.62), but nurses who experienced depression were 0.12 times at risk of experiencing fatigue (p=0.02). Conclusion: It can be concluded that depression is a factor which increases fatigue.
