The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Clobetasol ointment with nitroglycerin ointment on the prevention of superficial phlebitis caused by cannulation. This clinical trial was conducted on 110 patients admitted to the surgical ward, in three groups of Clobetasol, nitroglycerin, and control. The data collection tools included demographic information, information about intravenous treatment and phlebitis measurement scale. In the intervention groups, after venipuncture, 1.5 cm (about 2 g) of ointment was applied in the distal part of the Angio catheter and the site was dressed with sterile gauze. In three time periods of 24, 48 and 72 hours from the time of venipuncture.
Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of clobetasol ointment with nitroglycerin ointment on the prevention of superficial phlebitis caused by cannulation.
Background: Today, more than 80 to 90% of hospitalized patients receive intravenous treatment during their treatment, and more than 500 million peripheral venous catheters are placed annually, although cannulation provide numerous benefits in clinical setting, but because of its invasive feature, it can end in unpleasant outcomes such as phlebitis Method: This clinical trial was conducted on 110 patients admitted to the surgical ward, in three groups of clobetasol, nitroglycerin, and control. The data collection tools included demographic information, information about intravenous treatment and phlebitis measurement scale. In the intervention groups, after venipuncture, 1.5 cm (about 2 g) of ointment was applied in the distal part of the Angio catheter and the site was dressed with sterile gauze. In three time periods of 24, 48 and 72 hours from the time of venipuncture.
