Abstract: ABSTRACT:Objective To explore the clinical value of improved body position in improving one-time success rate of PICC and reducing incidence rate of complications during PICC.Methods A total of 120 patients with lung cancer surgery were randomly divided into traditional body po-sition group and improved body position group.One-time success rate and incidence rate of com-plications during PICC were compared between two groups.Results There was significant differ-ence in one-time success rate of PICC between semi-reclining position group and supine group (P <0.05).Compared with the supine group,the time of PICC in the semi-reclining position group was significantly shorter (P <0.05),and the incidence rates of local edema and local inflam-mation around puncture point was significantly lower (P <0.05).Conclusion The modified semi-reclining position can effectively improve one-time success rate of PICC and reduce the inci-dence rates of misplaced PICC and complications.
