ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the optimal self care in lung cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in ladder-type nursing training,network education,continuing nursing care clinics,and other forms of nursing mode care.Methods Based on the baselien data of patients in the control group and observation group,PICC self management ability,PICC quantitative data,PICC-related infections,thrombosis,and other complications were compared,and the impact of continued nursing platform on lung cancer patients with indwelling PICC was analyzed.Results In the observation group self management ability and health behavior is higher than that of the control group (P＜0.001).PICC catheter -related complications no difference with the control group (P＞0.05),Patient satisfaction of the observation group than the control group,the difference was statistically significant (92.18％ vs.79.00％,P=0.015).Conclusion The self care based on the continued nursing mode established by PICC speciality nurses can improve the self-management level of patients with PICC,reduce PICC-related complications,and increase the patient's satisfaction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of aspirin intervention on thrombosis in lung cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC).Methods From December 2007 to June 2012,a total of 997 cases of lung cancer received PICC insertion in Shanghai Chest Hospital.The patients admitted from December 2007 to October 2011 were in the control group (n =562),while those admitted from November 2011to June 2012 were in the intervention group (n =435).The control group received conventional catheterization and saline tube sealing; the study group was treated with the modified Seldinger technique,oral administration of aspirin enteric tablets,and diluted heparin sodium tube sealing.Results The incidence of thrombosis was4.09％ (23/562) in the control group and 2.99％ (13/435) in the intervention group.In the control group,17 cases of thrombosis occurred within 1 week after catheter insertion,3 between 1 week to 1 month,and 3 after 1 month ; in the intervention group,4 cases of thrombosis occurred within 1 week after catheter insertion,5between 1 week to 1 month,and 4 after 1 month,presenting a significant difference compared with the control group (Z =-2.221,P =0.026).A significant intergroup difference was also observed in terms of thrombus location (Z =-2.066,P =0.039):in the control group,17 cases had thrombus in peripheral superficial vein,and 6 in supraclavicular vein or internal jugular vein; while in the intervention group,5 cases had thrombus in peripheral superficial vein,and 8 in supraclavicular vein or internal jugular vein.Conclusion The prophylactic oral administration of aspirin could effectively reduce the thrombosis in lung cancer patients treated with chemotherapy via PICC.
