摘要目的 探讨经外周静脉留置中心静脉导管(PICC)后使用电热垫热疗预防静脉炎发生的作用.方法 将100例PICC置管患者按随机数字表法进行分组,其中PICC置管后于输液过程中使用电热垫热疗的50例患者为实验组;PICC置管后未使用电热垫热疗,仅进行常规观察的50例患者为对照组,比较2组静脉炎的发生率,进行χ2检验.结果 实验组静脉炎的发生率显著低于对照组.结论 PICC置管后使用电热垫热疗可有效预防静脉炎的发生.

abstractsObjective To observe the effect of phlebitis prevention by thermotherapy with electric heating pad after peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC). Methods 100 patients underwent PICC were randomly divided into two groups, 50 patients receiving thermotherapy with electric heating pad were named the experimental group, other 50 patients only given routine observation was selected as the control group.The incidence rate of phlebitis was compared between the two groups and the results went through χ2 teat. Results The phlebitis rate of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group. Conclusions Thermotherapy with electric heating pad can prevent phlebitis caused by peripheral-ly inserted central catheter (PICC) .
