Incidence of Phlebitis Associated With Peripheral Venous Catheter of Patients With COVID-19

Intrapleural central venous catheter malposition.

Percutaneous insertion of central venous catheter (CVC) is a valuable procedure in managing critically ill patients. However, placement of CVC is not without its complications. The author reports a case in which a CVC was inserted into the right pleural cavity which was not detected by the usual clinical methods of confirming catheter placement and an antero-posterior (A-P) chest x-ray.

The Incidence of Peripheral Catheter-Related Thrombosis in Surgical Patients

Background. Central venous catheters and peripherally inserted central catheters are well established risk factors for upper limb deep vein thrombosis. There is limited literature on the thrombosis rates in patients with peripheral catheters. A prospective observational study was conducted to determine the incidence of peripheral catheter-related thrombosis in surgical patients. Methods. Patien...

Peripheral Osteoma of Mandible

Most of the head and neck tumors are odontogenic in origin. Non odontogenic tumors of epithelial or mesenchymal origin also form a significant component in this region. The tumors arising from mesenchymal component may originate from various structures like fibrous tissue, adipose tissue, bone and cartilage. Here we report a case of benign tumor originating from bone that is restricted to the c...

Incidence of phlebitis associated with the use of peripheral IV catheter and following catheter removal

OBJECTIVE to investigate the incidence of phlebitis and its association with risk factors when using peripheral IV catheters (PIC) and following their removal - (post-infusion phlebitis) in hospitalized adults. METHOD a cohort study of 171 patients using PIC, totaling 361 punctures. Sociodemographic variables and variables associated with the catheter were collected. Descriptive and analytica...
