Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of turning head to the opposite insertion side on catheter heterotopia and degree of comfort among PICC catheter patients.Methods:The inpatients with PICC catheter in Hepatological Surgery of Changzhi People′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 were collected as research object, patients from January to December 2018 was assignment to the control group, patients from January to December 2018 was assignment to the experimental group, with 174 cases in each group. They were catheterized with turning head to the opposite insertion side and turning head to the PICC insertion side, respectively. The incidence of catheter heterotopia, complications as well as degree of comfort during the placement of PICC were compared between the two groups.Results:The successful cases of one-time delivery tube and occurred catheter heterotopia were 97.1% (169/174) and 1.2% (2/174) in the experimental group, the index mentioned above were 91.4% (159/174) and 7.5% (13/174) in the control group, the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( χ2=5.30, 8.43, both P<0.05). The results from survival curve analysis demonstrated that the occurred of catheter-related venous thrombosis and catheter-related bloodstream infections were significantly lower in the experimental group compared to the control group ( χ2=15.23, 8.76, both P<0.05). The score of comfort during the placement of PICC was (15.00 ± 2.19) in the experimental group, which was significantly lower than (16.86 ± 1.88) points in the control group ( t=8.49, P<0.05). Conclusions:Adopting turning head to the opposite insertion side method can improve the success rate of one-time delivery tube, reduce the incidence of catheter heterotopia and reduce the discomfort of patients during PICC catheterization.
