Comparative study of two scalp veuipuncture methods / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To seek a scalp venipuneture method with high success rate and less pain for patients. Methods Taking the rapid parallel straight method as the control group, and the rapid vertical straight method as the experimental group, 400 patients were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group with 200 patients in each group. The success rate of two groups were counted, pain scores were got by VAS visual imitation assessment and the results undergoing statistical analysis. Results The success rate was 91.5% in the control group, and 99.5% in the experimental group. Distinguished sig-nificance existed in VAS visual imitation score. Conclusions The rapid vertical straight method is supe-rior to rapid parallel straight method in scalp venipuncture.
