Abstract
Objective To study the pros and cons of two methods of infusing itraconazole injectionand prevent the blockage of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and improve patients' satisfaction with nursing technology. Methods 172 patients infusing itraconazole were divided into two groups by random digital table method. 86 cases established an independent infusion pathway as the control group, another 86 cases using PICC for itraconazole injection and withdrawing plunger of the syringe about 0.5 ml before and after the infusion and then pulsing -flushing it with 10 ml normal saline as the experimental group. Then compared the blockage rate of PICC and the patients' satisfaction with nursing technology. Results The blockage rate of the two groups had no significant difference (χ2= 0.206,P>0.05) while patients' satisfaction with nursing skills was distinct, and the experimental group's was 96.51% (83/86), much higher than 16.28% (14/86) of the control group. Conclusions Withdrawing taken before and after the infusion of itraconazole injection could effectively prevent catheter blockage and improve patients' satisfaction with nursing technology.
