Abstract:
Objective To explore the ideal positions for venous indwelling needle among elderly patients. Methods A total of 135 elderly patients, who required transfusion aged from 70 to 90 years old, were randomly divided into observation group (n=66) and control group (n=69). Patients of the observation group underwent the pricking of forearm vein whiles patients of the control group received the pricking of dorsal hand vein. We compared the indwelling length of venous indwelling needle, incidences of related complications, success rate of pricking at first time and the pain level of pricking. Results The indwelling time of observation group was (4. 45 ± 0. 75) d higher than (4. 16 ± 0. 85) d of the control group; the complications such as phlebitis, fluid exudation in the observation was 12. 1% lower than 27. 5% in the control group (t/χ2 =2. 136, 5. 010;P<0. 05). There was no statistical significance for pain level of pricking and success rate of pricking at first time [(4. 12 ± 1. 99) vs (3. 61 ± 1. 58) score; 86. 4% vs 89. 9%; t/χ2 =1. 652, 0. 394;P>0. 05]. Conclusions The venous indwelling needle in forearm vein has some priority, decreases the complications incidences during needle indwelling, and postpones the length of indwelling, which can be the first choice.
