ABSTRACT
The incidence of thrombophlebitis in the present study was 18.3%. It was of mild grade in all the cases. The incidence of thrombophlebitis was more (24%) when short teflon canula was used as intravenous placement device. Under similar infusion conditions with stainless steel needle, scalp vein needle and long teflon canula, the incidence was 16.6%, 13.3% and 16.6% respectively. Thrombophlebitis bears a direct relationship to the duration of infusion. The incidence was negligible at the end of 8 hours, whereas 14 patients developed thrombophlebitis by the end of 24 hours (63.7%).
