Multidisciplinary cooperative mode led by infusion nurse specialists used to ensure the nursing quality of peripherally inserted central catheters in China: A 5-year retrospective study.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effect of multidisciplinary cooperation mode (MCM) led by infusion nurse specialists (INSs) on peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) catheterization and indwelling nursing quality. METHODS: Participants' demographic information, catheter types, catheterization approaches, puncture site, tip position, professional title of nurses, success rate of catheterization, consultation rate, detection rate of complications and outcome improvement rate of 6576 outpatients and hospitalized patients with PICC were analyzed retrospectively by a software named "questionnaire stars," in a large tertiary general hospital in Shanghai, from January 2015 to December 2019. SPSS 26.0 for Windows was used for data collection and description, Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis of enumeration data, and p < 0.05 was statistically significant. RESULTS: According to the catheter types' data, the use rate of three-way valve catheters decreased from 79.9% to 14.5%, while the use rate of three-way valve solo catheters increased from 12.7% to 51.6%, and the use rate of power injectable and open-ended catheters increased from 7.4% to 33.9%. According to the data of PICC catheterization method, conventional technology decreased significantly from 16.8% to 1.1%, modified Seldinger technique (MST) increased gradually from 26.1% to 51.3%, while ultrasound guided modified Seldinger technique (US and MST) decreased slightly from 57.2% to 47.6%. 7.5% catheter tip ends were malpositioned while nine indwelled PICCs were traced to have tip end malposition. The consultation rate was significantly higher than that before applying MCM led by INSs (x2 = 151.713, p < 0.05). After applying MCM led by INSs, the detection rate of complications was significantly higher than before (x2 = 5.499, p < 0.05), the rate of successful insertion at one time was significantly higher than before (x2 = 187.589, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: After the application of INSs-led MCM, progresses have been achieved. The nursing quality of patients' PICC was significantly improved than before.

Observation on the application effect of power port in cancer patients receiving contrast-enhanced CT scans / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective To investigate the application effect of Power port in contrast-enhanced CT scans. Methods Totally 220 cancer patients who needed contrast- enhanced CT scans after chemotherapy were selected in Changhai hospital From September 2017 to September 2018, including 110 cases in the observation group and 110 cases in the control group with convenient sampling method. The observation group was injected contrast medium through Power port for CT scans. Contrast medium was injected into the control group by 22G of Peripheral venous access devices (Introcan?). The incidence of contrast medium exosmosis, nursing time and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results The incidence of extravasation of contrast medium in the observation group was 0, lower than that in the control group 9.1% (10/110), the difference was significant(χ2=10.476,P=0.015); the nursing time in the observation group was (2.60 ±0.15) minutes per time, which was lower than that in the control group (5.60 ± 5.29) minutes per time), the difference was significant (t=5.934,P =0.000); the patient satisfaction in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (Z=-12.695, P=0.000). Conclusions Contrast medium injection through Power port for CT scans can reduce the incidence of contrast medium exosmosis, reduce nursing hours and improve patient satisfaction.
