Abstract:
Objective:To analyze and evaluate the current situation of unplanned extubation of midline catheters, and to provide a basis for the prevention of unplanned extubation of midline catheters.Methods:PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, Scopus, China Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and VIP database were searched by computer to collect studies on the incidence of unplanned extubation of midline catheters from inception to February, 2024. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, and then the meta-analysis was performed by Stata 18.0 software.Results:A total of 35 literatures were included, with a total sample size of 7 202 cases. Meta-analysis results showed that the overall incidence of unplanned catheter extubation was 15.3% (95% CI 12.3%-18.3%). Pain was the most common cause of unplanned extubation, occurring at 8.3% (95% CI 3.3%-13.2%). Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of unplanned extubation in patients <18 years old, 18-59 years old, and ≥60 years old were 17.0%, 10.9%, 18.0%, respectively. The incidence of unplanned extubation in high-income countries and middle and low-income countries were 24.4% and 3.3%, respectively. The incidence of unplanned extubation of catheter tips near axillary vein, chest wall segment axillary vein, or subclavian vein were 19.3% and 3.6%, respectively. Conclusions:The incidence of unplanned extubation of midline catheters is high. Among them, the incidence of unplanned extubation was higher in patients ≥60 years of age, high-income countries, and patients with catheter tips placed near axillary veins. It is suggested that medical staff should pay attention to this and formulate relevant measures to prevent the occurrence of unplanned extubation.
