Objective: In order to explore the clinical application effect of the upper arm venous infusion port, analyze the prevention and treatment effect of catheter rupture of the upper arm venous infusion port, and conduct a series of studies on postoperative related complications,
as well as analyze the prevention and treatment of catheter rupture of the upper arm venous infusion port effect using chest radiography and computed tomography. Methods: We collected clinical data of 98 patients implanted in the upper arm venous infusion port in the Second Affiliated
Hospital of Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Hangzhou Shulan Hospital from January to December 2017, divided the 98 patients into two groups, and gave 49 patients in group A Based on the patient’s basic intervention, 49 patients in group B were given prevention
and treatment intervention of catheter rupture, and the intervention effects of the two groups were compared. Consult the nursing records during the hospitalization and maintenance period after the implantation of the upper arm vein infusion port, summarize the complications, analyze the causes,
and discuss the formulation of feasible nursing countermea-sures. Results: 98 patients were followed up for 5-16 months, with a median follow-up time of 10 months. Within 2 weeks after implantation of the upper arm vein infusion port and during discharge maintenance, the incidence of
complications was 24.49% (24/98), 8.16% (8/98), the difference in the incidence of complications between the two time periods was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Among them, common complications include incision bleeding at the port body, poor healing of the incision, local
swelling, obstruction of catheter withdrawal, extravasation of transfusion at the port body, catheter blockage, catheter displacement, and catheter-related thrombosis. There was a difference in the incidence of catheter rupture, catheter rupture time, and patient satisfaction after intervention
between the two groups of intravenous implantation patients (P < 0.05), which was statistically significant. Conclusions: Complications within 2 weeks after implantation of the upper arm venous infusion port are significantly higher than the maintenance period. Among them,
infusion extravasation, catheter-related thrombosis, catheter blockage, and catheter displacement at the port body are serious complications that directly affect the use of the upper arm infusion port . The prevention and treatment of catheter rupture for patients who have used implanted intravenous
infusion ports for a long time has significant effects, which can reduce the occurrence of catheter rupture and ensure the safety of patients’ lives and health.
