Feasibility study in collecting blood specimen of cancer patients through PICC / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the influence of collecting blood specimen of cancer patients through PICC on blood test result and catheter-related complication,and discuss the path and feasibility of collecting blood through PICC.Methods Adopting clinical self-contrast experiment,collecting blood specimens of 100 patients at one side through PICC (the observation group)and by ordinary method at the other side of limbs (the control group),comparing the test differences of blood routine,blood biochemistry,and coagulation function,etc.between the two groups.The incidence of catheter-related complication was also observed a week after collecting blood through PICC.Results There was no statistic difference between the two groups in terms of test results.No case of catheter-related complication in a week after collecting blood occurred in the observation group.Conclusions The method of collecting blood specimen through PICC is accurate,safe and feasible,the key point is to implement scientific and standard collecting path and entry-qualification of operators strictly.
