About this study

Official title: Development of an Infusion Monitoring System to Prevent Phlebitis, Infiltration and Extravasation and Its Application in the Intensive Care Unit

Peripheral venous catheter complications are conditions that are frequently seen in intensive care clinics and require nursing care. The most common complications are phlebitis, infiltration and extravasation. Nurses should take the necessary precautions to prevent these complications from developing.. Therefore, this planned thesis study aims to establish an infusion monitoring system and evaluate its effectiveness in early detection of complications related to peripheral intravenous catheters. The research is planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. The study will be conducted in Ordu State Hospital General Intensive Care Unit 1 and General Intensive Care Unit 3 clinics. The universe of the study will consist of patients receiving inpatient treatment in General Intensive Care Unit 1 and General Intensive Care Unit 3 clinics. The sample size will be determined by g-power analysis after a two-month preliminary follow-up. Data will be collected with the "Clinical Follow-up Form", "Patient Information Form", and "Complication Follow-up Form". The clinics included in the study will be divided into two groups as experimental and control groups. First, the frequency of complications will be determined in the experimental and control groups. Then, while the control group continues its routine protocol and applications, an infusion follow-up system will be developed in the experimental group and will be used by nurses in patient care. In the final stage, the frequency of peripheral venous catheter complications will be determined again. Data will be evaluated using the SPSS 22.0 package program at a significance level of p<0.05 and a confidence interval of 95%.

Read the detailed description

Electronic monitoring systems can increase the quality of care and patient safety by enabling nurses to gain effective care and application techniques and preventing complications that may develop in patients. In addition, the integration of such technologies into clinical practices can enable nurses to act more consciously. This study can lead to the wider application of technology-based solutions in healthcare services by showing the effects of electronic monitoring systems in patient care and complication management in the scientific literature. Reductions in phlebitis, infiltration and extravasation rates improve clinical outcomes by increasing patient safety and increase the quality of life of patients. It is expected that costs will decrease with the increase in the quality of healthcare services and it is aimed to reduce the workload of nurses. Reductions in complication rates can increase the welfare of individuals by allowing patients to recover faster and shorten the duration of hospital stay. In addition, reductions in health-related complications can help reduce healthcare expenses and ease the financial burden of the state and individuals.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complication Follow-up Form

    This form was developed by the investigators to enable the identification and evaluation of phlebitis, infiltration and extravasation complications. This form has no minimum and maximum score.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 10 monts

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Peripheral Edema Scale

    It helps to diagnose the oedema developing in the patient. A minimum score of 1 and a maximum score of 4 is obtained from the oedema scale. The increase in the score indicates an increase in the degree of oedema and more unfavourable results.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 10 monts

  2. Glasgow Coma Scale

    This scale allows the patients' level of consciousness to be assessed. Minimum 3 points and maximum 15 points can be obtained from this scale. An increase in the score indicates that the level of consciousness is better, while a decrease in the score indicates that the level of consciousness has worsened.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 10 monts

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Infusion monitoring system developed for use by nurses in patient care in people with Extravasation and Intensive Care Units (ICUs), run by Ordu University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Fatma Aksoy, MScN (+905389529328, fatma.aksoyy96@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complication Follow-up Form (time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 10 monts). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Nov 2025.
