OBJECTIVE To study the clinical effect of preventing and treating sterile phlebitis (abacterial phlebitis, SP) by infrared irradiation after peripherally inserted central catheterization (PICC). METHODS Totally 122 inpatients from the Zhejiang Provincial Peoplers Hospital were divided into two groups randomly, the control group and the experimental group. The control group was only treated with usual care after PICC, while the experimental group with both infrared irradiation and usual care. The incidence rate of SP and its correlation factor were compared between the two groups. RESULTS None in the experimental group got SP. Nevertheless, the control group got a 21.9% incidence i'ate. The development of SP mostly own to impassable intubation or repeating intubation. CONCLUSIONS For those patients with impassable intubation or repeating intubation during PICC operation, infrared irradiation shows greatly helpful and can obviously prevent the SP and diminish patients' fee. |
