| description | Background: In the hospitalization wards where phlebitis has an incidence and accounts for the most serious
complications of environmental fluid therapy.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of structured nursing education programs in prevention
of admitted patients’ phlebitis.
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study in which the post-test design with control and intervention group
was used, 400 patients were randomly divided into two groups of 200. Data were collected by questionnaire
including demographic questions and Jackson’s Visual Infusion Phlebitis (VIP) scale was used to evaluate
the complications of peripheral vascular catheter (phlebitis). The findings were analyzed by SPSS 25
software.
Results: The mean score of phlebitis incidence in the hospital wards, whose nurses that had undergone such
trainings, was significantly decreased (p<0.001) compared to the mean score of phlebitis occurrence in the
wards, whose nurses represented the control group and had taken part in no such training programs.
Moreover, the mean score of intensity of Phlebitis complications in the wards, whose nurses that were
members of the experimental group, significantly decreased (p<0.001) compared to the mean score of
phlebitis intensity among patients of the wards whose nurses represented the control group.
Conclusion: The findings of this study testify that holding a structured nursing education programs will be
effective in checking the incidence of phlebitis and its complexity among the patients hospitalized in Imam
Khomeini Hospital in Mahabad. |
