ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of multipore-light brown fixation on preventing peripherally inserted central catheter from prolapsing. Methods Randomizedly 82 patients with PICC were equally divided into treatment group and control group. Multipore-Light Brown fixation was used in the treatment group to stabilize catheter , while the routine care was applied in the control group for stabilization . The two groups were compared in terms of prolapse rate and degree of the PICC . Result The prolapse rate and the prolapse degree of the treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group ( P < 0 . 01 ) . Conclusions The multipore-light brown fixation is more effective in the stabilization of PICC. It can effectively prevent the PICC from prolapsing.
