“…We found that phlebitis is more common when the catheter is inserted in an emergency situation (34.78% OR 2.13, 95% CI 0.85–5.31) which is comparable to the study conducted by Nassaji-Zavarch et al [25] and Salma U et al [17] one of the hypotheses for this observation is that in emergency insertions preparatory care may have been inadequate and mechanical irritation of the vein wall is more common.

“…Similar findings have been reported by Tagalakis et al and Cicolini et al [418] but Tager et al [19] and Comely et al [20] found that gender was not a risk factor. In contrast to above Diwedi et al [14] and Salma U et al [17] found out that incidence was higher in the male patients. We have no satisfactory explanation for our findings, but hormonal differences may be a contributing factor for phlebitis in females.…”

Context:Peripheral vein cannulation is commonly performed for rapid and accurate administration of medications. Phlebitis is one of the commonest complications that develop after intravenous catheter application.Aims:This study aims to investigate the incidence of phlebitis and to evaluate factors contributing to the development of phlebitis.Settings and Design:This was a prospective observational study conducted on patients admitted at 4 Air Force Hospital Kalaikunda.Methods:Study conducted on 150 patients who were admitted to the medical and surgical division of the hospital during the period from July 2018 to April 2019. The factors studied were age, gender, site of insertion, place of insertion, cannula size, IV medications, and blood products used. Phlebitis was graded using Visual Infusion Phlebitis Score.Statistical Analysis Used:The incidence of phlebitis was expressed in percentage and odds ratio was calculated to estimate the effects of suspected risk factors.Results:Incidence of phlebitis was found to be 31.4% from our study. The increased incidence rate of phlebitis was seen in the female gender, age less than 60 years, insertion in the lower limb, large catheter size, catheters inserted in emergency situations, and IV drugs administration.Conclusion:Phlebitis is an important on-going problem in present-day clinical practice. Avoiding of preventable risk factors, proper nursing care, and daily inspection of catheters needed for prevention of phlebitis.

“…This is same a research by Salma, Sarker, Zafrin, & Ahamed (2019) which states that phlebitis mostly occurs in patients who have a history of Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension with a percentage of 32.89% and 25%, respectively. The reason is the low flow of blood vessels in the peripheral tissues so that the immune system decreases, the regeneration of the body's cells slows down, and the endothelium wall is easily injured (Akbar & Isfiandiari, 2018;Fitriyanti, 2015;Jirkovsky, Hlavacova, Nikodemova, & Tomova, 2014;Salma et al al., 2019).…”

Background: A hospital is a health service facility that allows nosocomial infections, namely phlebitis. Phlebitis is a complication of intravenous catheter placement that is characterized by redness, pain, swelling, and fever. The high rate of phlebitis in various countries is due to the risk factors that predispose to the incidence of phlebitis due to intravenous catheter placement.Objective: This study aims to determine the risk factors for phlebitis in intravenous catheter placement.Methodology: This study uses an observational analytic method with a cohort design. The study was conducted on 27 February - 14 March 2020 with 22 samples taken using purposive accidental sampling in the inward and RST surgery Dr. Soedjono Magelang. The instrument used was an observation sheet designed by researchers that had been tested by experts and a standard operational checklist for infusion. Data analysis uses a chi-square test and multiple logistic regression.Results: The incidence of phlebitis was 7 respondents (31.8%) and the associated risk factors were the type of infusion fluid (RR = 4.37 CI 95% 1.09-17.58; p-value 0.020). While the factors of age, sex, nutritional status, chronic diseases, types of injection drugs, insertion location, duration of installation, nurse skills, installation techniques, and catheter size were not related to the incidence of phlebitis (p-value 0.05).Conclusion: Although several factors are not related to the incidence of phlebitis, these factors can be a support for the incidence of phlebitis.

“…PİK uygulaması için tercih edilen bölge kadar tercih edilen kateter numarası da flebit gelişimi açısından risk oluşturabilmektedir. Kateter numarasının küçük olması damar içi mekanik travmayı önlediği için flebit riskini azalttığı bildirilmiştir (29,30). Araştırmamızda flebit gelişen hastalara uygulanan kateter numaraları 22G-20G'dir ve büyük çoğunlukla 20G (%75) numaralı kateterlerde flebit gelişmiştir (Tablo 3).…”

Flebit periferik intravenöz kateter (PİK) uygulanan hastalarda en sık görülen komplikasyondur. Bu çalışma, PİK ilişkili flebit prevalansını saptamak amacıyla gözlemsel, bir günlük ve nokta prevalans çalışması olarak yapılmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma, bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesinde yatan ve PİK uygulanan hastalar (n=402) ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırmaya başlamadan önce ilgili kurumlardan resmi izin ve etik kurul izni alınmıştır. Araştırmada veriler "PİK İlişkili Flebit Veri Toplama Formu" ve "Flebit skalası" aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde ilgili istatistiksel yöntemler kullanılmıştır. Hastanedeki kliniklere ait yatak sayıları (n=756) belirlendikten sonra, her klinik için biri gözlemci, diğeri uygulayıcı olmak üzere iki kişilik hemşire ekipleri oluşturulmuştur. Çalışma ekibini oluşturan hemşirelere; PİK İlişkili Flebit Eğitimi ve formları nasıl dolduracaklarına dair eğitim verilmiş ve hasta sayısı kadar form dağıtılmıştır. Hemşireler aynı anda verileri toplamaya başlamıştır. Hemşirelere veri toplamaları sırasında telefonla ve klinikleri dolaşarak danışmanlık verilmiştir.Bulgular: Araştırmada hastaların %69,1'inin iç hastalıkları ve cerrahi kliniklerde yattığı ve PİK yoluyla antibiyotik tedavisi aldığı, %75,1'inin PİK'in kalış süresinin 96 saatten az olduğu, PİK uygulama bölgesinin vücudun sağ bölümünden ve en fazla ön kol ve el üstünden uygulandığı belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada flebit prevalansının %3,98 olduğu ve hastaların %3,98'inde 1. derece flebit geliştiği saptanmıştır.Sonuç: Flebit oranlarının literatür ile paralel olması ve saptanan flebit olguların henüz birinci evrede olması dikkat çekicidir. Flebit gelişimini önlemek ve flebiti erken dönemde saptamak amacıyla PİK takılan bölgenin flebit açısından düzenli aralıklarla değerlendirilmesi önerilmektedir.
