Abstract:
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to update the existing nursing practice guideline for intravenous infusion guidelines according to the evidence-based practice guideline in South Korea. METHODS: Guideline update process was performed using 22 steps according to the manuals developed by NICE and SIGN. RESULTS: Updated nursing practice guidelines for the intravenous infusion were consisted of 23 domains and 322 recommendations. The number of recommendations in each domain were 4 for general instruction, 12 for vascular access device selection, 20 for site selection, 9 for insertion, 54 for stabilization, 21 for maintaining patency, 4 for blood sampling, 33 for exchange and removal, 28 for add-on device selection, 28, 72 for infusion related complications, 56 for infusion therapies, 7 for education, and 2 for documentation and report. There were 15.9% of A, 30.2% of B, 53.9% of C in terms of grade recommendations. A total of 178 (51.6%) recommendations were newly developed and 24 previous recommendations have been deleted. CONCLUSION: Updated nursing practice guideline for intravenous infusion was expected to be an evidence-based practice guideline for intravenous infusion in South Korea. This guideline is suggested to be disseminated to clinical nursing settings nationwide to improve the efficiency of intravenous infusion practice.
