What is the cost of peripheral IV cannulation

peripheral iv

“Our study shows that securing IV access often requires multiple attempts, with nearly 30% of the total cost amounting towards materials wasted. The risk of multiple attempts is highest for older patients with invisible and non-palpable veins” Vadgaonkar et al (2023).

Vasopressor infusions via PVC – Full Text

peripheral iv

“The administration of vasopressor infusions via PVC for the management of patients with CS is feasible and safe in patients with cardiogenic shock. Further studies are needed to establish this method of treatment” Asher et al (2023).

Peripheral intravenous catheter study – Full Text

peripheral iv

“The study indicates the importance of applying vascular access needs assessments, providing training for inserters, identifying optimum dressing methods, and optimising documentation” Indarwati et al (2023).

Staph aureus peripheral IV catheter infection rates – Full Text

peripheral iv

“Four hundred ninety patients with SAB were included, with community-acquired (n = 166), health care-associated (n = 163), and hospital-acquired SAB (n = 161). Endocarditis (n = 90, 18.3%), peripheral intravenous catheter infection (n = 80, 16.3%), and septic arthritis (n = 58, 11.8%) were the most frequent diagnoses” van der Vaart et al (2022).

Peripheral IV catheterization videos on YouTube

peripheral iv

“Despite this positive result, some videos provide risky information for patient safety due to issues such as ignoring the asepsis principles and not including proper Peripheral Intravenous Catheterization steps” Özsaban and Bayram (2023).

USGIV catheter insertion simulation – Full Text

peripheral iv

“After completing the USGIV SBML curriculum, paediatric anaesthesiologists increased their ultrasound use for successful i.v. catheter insertion and first-attempt success rate with ultrasound for patients in the operating theatre” Ballard et al (2022).

Neonatal cannula care

peripheral iv

“To determine the effect of splint on the functional duration of peripheral intravenous cannula (PIVC) in neonates” Thushara et al (2023).

Peripheral IV access for therapeutic plasmapheresis

peripheral iv

“We evaluated the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of double-filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) with PVA, using ultrasound guidance and regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA), i.e., PVA-RCA-DFPP in patients undergoing chronic DFPP” Cardinaleet al (2023).

Peripheral IV catheter insertion simulation

peripheral iv

“The rapid cycle deliberate practice simulation strategy resulted in Licensed Practical Nurses’ performance improvements in peripheral intravenous catheter insertion” de Souza et al (2023).

Peripheral vasopressor infusion survey – Full Text

peripheral iv

“There is variability in clinical practice regarding PVI administration in critically ill adult patients dependent on drug availability and local institutional recommendations” Abu Sardaneh et al (2023).

Through the needle peripheral IV catheter insertion

peripheral iv

“Through-the-needle (TTN) catheter deployment resulted in no measurable contamination in this study. OTN catheters were 1.67 times more likely to be contaminated than TTN in this study” Anstett and Brainard (2023).

Peripheral IV access research protocol – Full Text

peripheral iv

“After completion, it will answer the question of whether it is clinically relevant to use ultrasound-guided vascular access in the context of not only short-term benefit of insertion, but also up to 5 days after insertion” Hlasny et al (2023).

Long peripheral IV catheter in DIVA patients

peripheral iv

“The aim of the study was to evaluate whether ultrasonography can be useful for the selection of the suitable LPC in DIVA (difficult intravenous access) patients” Lisova et al (2023).

Reducing peripheral IV catheter contamination – Full Text

peripheral iv

“To compare a traditional over-the-needle peripheral intravenous catheter device to a through-the-needle (TTN) peripheral intravenous catheter device for early bacterial contamination during insertion” Anstett and Brainard (2023).

Peripheral IV catheter bloodstream infection

IVTEAM Peripheral IV

“We compared the risk of peripheral venous catheter (PVC) bloodstream infection (BSI) to central line-associated BSI (CLABSI) at University of California San Diego Health” Feldheim et al (2023).

Peripheral IV catheter associated BSI

peripheral iv

“Measures to prevent peripheral-line associated BSI (PLABSI), like those implemented successfully for the prevention of CLABSI, should be considered” Benenson et al (2023).
