Heparinised saline versus normal saline in the maintenance of invasive arterial lines in intensive care
Intr Maintaining the patency of arterial lines is essential for obtaining accurate physiological measurements, enabling blood sampling and minimising the time, expense and patient discomfort incurred by line replacement. HS is commonly used to maintain and prolong arterial line patency. In 2008, a National Patient Safety Agency alert advised organisations to minimise its use for this purpose fo...
متن کاملNormal saline versus heparin for patency of central venous catheters in adult patients - a systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Heparin saline (HS) is theoretically superior to normal saline (NS) for maintaining the patency of central venous catheters (CVCs), but the comparative efficacy of them remains controversial. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the efficacy of NS versus HS in the maintenance of the patency of CVCs in adult patients. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase a...
متن کاملFinding a solution: Heparinised saline versus normal saline in the maintenance of invasive arterial lines in intensive care.
BACKGROUND We assessed the impact of heparinised saline versus 0.9% normal saline on arterial line patency. Maintaining the patency of arterial lines is essential for obtaining accurate physiological measurements, enabling blood sampling and minimising line replacement. Use of heparinised saline is associated with risks such as thrombocytopenia, haemorrhage and mis-selection. Historical studies...
متن کاملHeparinized saline versus normal saline for maintaining peripheral venous catheter patency in China: An open-label, randomized controlled study
Objective To evaluate the effects of heparin saline versus normal saline as locking solution for maintaining patency in peripheral venous catheters in Chinese patients. Methods This open-label, randomized controlled study was conducted in two hepatobiliary surgery wards, where patients received identical treatments, at a tertiary referral hospital. Patients were randomly divided into a normal s...
متن کاملSwitching from heparinized saline flush to normal saline flush for maintaining peripheral venous catheter patency.
BACKGROUND The practice of using heparinized saline as a flush fluid for maintaining peripheral venous catheter patency of hospitalized patients in Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand is not evidence-based. OBJECTIVE To switch from heparinized saline flush to normal saline flush for maintaining peripheral venous catheter patency in the patients hospitalized to medical wards. METHODS Study...
