Background: The current study assesses the incidences and grades of phlebitis among patients with IV cannula to determine the association of grades of phlebitis. The purpose of the study was to study the feasibility of Routine replacement versus Clinically indicated replacement of peripheral venous catheters. The study observes the incidences of  removing peripheral intravenous catheters when clinically indicated compared with removing and re‐siting the catheter routinely. Methods: An observational study was conducted in the tertiary care private hospital of Mumbai, India. The study was conducted over 5 weeks from May -June 2020. Purposive sampling was considered during the collection of data. The sample size of the study was 117 patients admitted having peripheral venous catheters. The standard visual infusion phlebitis (VIP) score was used as a tool for data collection. Descriptive analysis was done.  Results: Out of 117 patients (VIP score 0 -56, Score 1- 49, Score -12 no cases with score 3, 4, and 5). Routine replacement of IV cannula after every 5 days is judiciously followed, 45 healthy lines were replaced at score 0; which is the major concern (Rs. 633/- the total cost of replacing 1 PVC line).  Conclusion: Following the routine practice of IV cannula replacement based on VIP score to avoid phlebitis is equally good but simultaneously clinically indicated replacement of IV cannula is advisable to make it cost-effective and reduced number of a prick to the patients; this will help to improve patient satisfaction.

Abstract Phlebitis is the most frequent complication associated with the use of Short Peripheral Catheters. The Visual Infusion Phlebitis Scale is a tool used to access the catheter insertions site and surrounding area, providing a score. The goal of this study was to translate and culturally adapt the VIP scale to European Portuguese in order to achieve a reliability score. Intra and inter-observer reliability studies were performed. The study was conducted at one Portuguese Hospital in a sample of 23 participants. The reliability score was assessed using Kendall's Tau = 0.925, Spearman's Rho = 0.926 and Cohen Kappa = 0.918.

Background: In hospitalized patients the use of intravenous devices like cannula are indispensable. Nearly about 80% of hospitalized patients require peripheral venous cannulation, as a part of therapy. Thrombophlebitis is one of the prevalent complications of peripheral venous cannulation.Method: The present study was aimed to find the incidence of thrombophlebitis after peripheral venous cannulations in the patients admitted in a tertiary care teaching hospital. Impact of regular trainings and interventions on the incidence and grades of thrombophlebitis was also studied. The study was conducted for period of 1 year.Result: The total of 28850 cannulations carried out on 11686 patients was observed. Phlebitis was diagnosed in 1821 peripheral venous cannulations, giving the incidence of 6.3%. As per Visual Infusion Phlebitis (VIP) score, 1527 (83.86%) were grade 1 phlebitis, 274 (15.04%) were with grade 2 phlebitis and 20 (1.10 %) were grade 3 phlebitis. Regular surveillance, training and timely interventions were carried out during this period and the effect of these interventions was noted in the monthly phlebitis rate. Phlebitis rate reduced from 9.89% in January to 3.99% in the month of December. There was also reduction in grade 2 thrombophlebitis (from 21.05% in January to 6.09% in December). In the last 4 months of study period grade 3 phlebitis was not reported.Conclusions: A significant reduction in the incidence of phlebitis associated with peripheral intravenous cannulations may be achieved by regular surveillance, training and timely interventions.

The insertion of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) is common for treatment among hospitalized patients. However, this procedure usually fails before the end of therapy because of several complications, including phlebitis. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the incidence and associated factors of phlebitis among patients with PIVC. A prospective cohort study was conducted in one of the hospitals located in East Coast Malaysia. The presence of phlebitis was assessed using the visual infusion phlebitis score checklist. The patients were followed until PIVC removal. A total of 321 data were collected among patients who received a new PIVC in the medical, gynecology, and orthopedic wards. The incidence of phlebitis was 36.1% (n= 116), and 96.6% of which were grade II. Patients aged 60 years (51.5%), men (42.2%), no known phlebitis history (47.4%), and with chronic disease record (46.8%) were determined as the highest percentage with phlebitis. This study demonstrated that age, gender, and chronic diseases were risk factors of developing phlebitis. Abstrak Karakteristik Pasien yang Berhubungan dengan Flebitis di Rumah Sakit Pantai Timur Semenanjung Malayía.

Introduction: Phlebitis is the most common complication of intravenous infusion therapy. Incidence of phlebitis in children receiving intravenous therapy has been reported to be as high as 71.25%. The study was done to find out the effectiveness of glycerin magnesium sulphate versus heparin benzyl nicotinate application in children with phlebitis. Methods: A pre-post control group design was used. A total of 43 subjects were randomly assigned into two groups [22 in experimental (glycerin magnesium sulphate application) and 21 in control (heparin benzyl nicotinate application) group] by lottery method. Data was collected using Modified Visual Infusion Phlebitis (VIP) Score. Results: The comparison between VIP score was based on observations made before the interventions and at 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours after the intervention. Independent t tests showed significant difference in reduction of VIP score in experimental and control group after 12 hours and 24 hours of intervention. The study demonstrated that there is no statistically significant difference in reduction of VIP score among the subjects in experimental and control group at 12 hours (p = 0.219), 24 hours (p = 0.349), 36 hours (p = 0.695) and 48 hours (p = 0.424) after the intervention. Conclusion: The study concludes that both glycerin magnesium sulphate and heparin benzyl nicotinate can be used effectively among children with phlebitis. However, after 24 hours of phlebitis, an alternative intervention needs to be used.

Replacing peripheral vascular catheters when clinically indicated rather than routinely has multiple benefits for patients and practitioners. Managing vascular catheters based on clinical indication provides early opportunities for intervention, or catheter removal or replacement. Where clinically indicated, peripheral vascular catheters can be used for a long time, and this is aided by decision-making tools such as the visual infusion phlebitis score and care bundles. Fewer cannulations result in less pain, better patient comfort and a lower risk of infection. For each cannulation avoided, about 20 minutes can be saved for other care activities. Replacing peripheral vascular catheters according to clinical indication can improve patient safety and optimise resource use.

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Intravenous catheters cause endothelial damage and trauma, which can predispose to venous thrombosis. Peripheral vein infusion thrombophlebitis occurs in 25- 35% of hospitalized patients with intravenous catheters and has both patient-related implications (e.g., sepsis) and economic consequences (e.g., extra nursing time). This study is designed to address this issue, by assessing the potential risk factors in those who have developed phlebitis, and deriving conclusions based on the same.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> A total of 830 patients were observed over a period of 2 months. All details of the patient were collected. Thrombophlebitis was graded using Visual Infusion Phlebitis Score. Each case was compared with a matching control.  </p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> 53 of 830 patients observed, developed thrombophlebitis giving an incidence of 6.4%. 92.5% had IV cannulation flushed after insertion. IV cannula had to be changed at least 2 times during the hospital stay. All had an average IV cannulation for 5 days. All had insertion of same size cannula (20G).
