Insights
Peripheral intravenous therapy infiltration and extravasation (PIVIE) risk factors in pediatric surgery patients include sex, age, disease type, puncture site, and indwelling time. Careful assessment and selection of puncture sites are crucial for prevention.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Surgery
- Vascular Access Devices
- Patient Safety
Background:
- Peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) are essential for medication delivery in pediatric surgery.
- Infiltration and extravasation injuries (PIVIE) pose significant risks to pediatric patients.
- Identifying risk factors for PIVIE is critical for improving patient outcomes.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify risk factors associated with peripheral intravenous therapy infiltration and extravasation (PIVIE) in pediatric surgery inpatients.
- To provide data for developing targeted preventive strategies against PIVIE.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective observational study at a tertiary general hospital.
- Logistic regression analysis to identify independent risk factors for PIVIE.
- Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to assess the relationship between PIVIE and duration.
Main Results:
- The study analyzed 11,006 pediatric surgery inpatients and 19,771 PIVCs.
- The overall incidence of PIVIE was 16.93%.
- Significant predictors of PIVIE included sex, age, disease classification, puncture site, and indwelling time.
Conclusions:
- Sex, age, disease type, puncture site, and indwelling time are significant risk factors for PIVIE in pediatric surgery patients.
- Effective assessment and selection of puncture sites are paramount.
- Informed clinical judgments based on patient-specific factors are necessary to minimize PIVIE risk.
Objective:
To determine the risk factors associated with peripheral intravenous therapy infiltration and extravasation (PIVIE) in paediatric surgery inpatients.
Methods:
This retrospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary general hospital in Sichuan, China. Logistic regression was employed to identify independent risk factors predictive of PIVIE. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was undertaken to determine the relationship between the occurrence of PIVIE and the duration of that event (survival time).
Results:
This study included 11 006 paediatric surgery inpatients and 19 771 peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs). The incidence of PIVIE was 16.93% (3347 of 19 771). The following were significant predictors of PIVIE: sex (odds ratio [OR] 0.834; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.772, 0.900); age (OR 0.945; 95% CI, 0.934, 0.956); disease classification (OR 0.962, 95% CI 0.950, 0.976); puncture site (OR 1.061; 95% CI 1.044, 1.078); and indwelling time (OR 1.257; 95% CI 1.215, 1.300).
Conclusions:
Sex, age, type of disease, puncture site and indwelling time were risk factors for PIVIE. The puncture site should be effectively assessed and accurately selected. Informed judgements should be based on the child's sex, age and medical condition, so that the appropriate preventive measures to minimize the risk of PIVIE can be implemented.
