Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

106
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

Local Anesthetics: Clinical Application as Intravenous Regional Anesthesia

377
Intravenous regional anesthesia or the Bier block technique is used to anesthetize a specific limb or extremity. It uses exsanguinated or blood-drained vessels to transport local anesthetics or LAs to the peripheral nerve trunks. Lidocaine without vasoconstrictors like epinephrine is most commonly used for this technique. Other drugs used are prilocaine, ropivacaine, and chloroprocaine. Bupivacaine is not recommended for this technique due to its high cardiac toxicity.
One of the advantages of...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Devices
  • Nursing Practice
  • Patient Care

Background:

  • Peripheral intravenous (IV) access failure is a common issue.
  • It leads to patient discomfort, dissatisfaction, and increased healthcare costs.
  • Effective management of peripheral IV catheters (PIVCs) is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the benefits and risks associated with PIVC utilization.
  • To examine the impact of infusate characteristics on peripheral vasculature.
  • To discuss PIVC site assessment, management, and future research priorities.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of PIVC utilization, complications, and management.
  • Analysis of factors influencing PIVC longevity and effectiveness.
  • Identification of current gaps and future directions in PIVC research.

Main Results:

  • PIVC failure presents significant challenges in patient care and healthcare economics.
  • Understanding infusate properties is key to preventing vascular complications.
  • Standardized site assessment and management protocols are essential for optimal outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Optimizing PIVC use requires a comprehensive approach addressing device selection, infusate properties, and site care.
  • Further research is needed to improve PIVC longevity and reduce failure rates.
  • Enhanced PIVC management can improve patient satisfaction and reduce healthcare expenditures.
