Abstract:
Objective To work out a flowchart for putting normal saline column by gravity drip via Groshong PICCs to guide intracavitary ECG and investigate the effect. Methods We developed the flowchart and trained the nurses to use it. Then the flowchart was used in catheteration of Groshong PICC to guide intracavitary ECG for 30 patients. Results The normal target rate was 93.3%(28/30) and the optimal tip target rate was 90.0%(27/30). The score on the flowchart by the nurses was (4.8 ± 0.4), indicating they were satisfied with it. Conclusion The flowchart for pushing normal saline column with gravity drip method via Groshong PICCs to guide intracavitary ECG provides an operational standard, enhancing the operational quality.
