The present study aims to analyze different care routes of the peripheral access central venous catheter to assess which alternative allows a moderate reduction in the level of complications associated with prolonged care frequency, due to the reduction of device manipulation.
A high level of patient satisfaction is detected due to the controlled follow-up of the device care, as well as a decrease in the need for transfer to a center for follow-up.
Objective: Identify the type of care frequency for PIVCs most beneficial for the reduction of complications associated with extraluminal device care (thrombosis, phlebitis, accidental removal, obstruction).
