Influence of Midline and PICC catheters use on frequency of complications associated with venous lines in hospitalised patients
Hromádková, Jaroslava ; Hocková, Jana (advisor) ; Kordulová, Pavla (referee)
Presented dissertation deals with the problematics of optimal choice of venous access for each hospitalized patient at standard internal wards. Introduction of vascular access must be safe for the patient and must allow the fulfillment of all the goals for which it was indicated. In recent years, in addition to peripheral cannulas and non-tunneled central catheters, introduction of midline catheters and PICC gets into everyday practice. The choice of optimal vascular access device since adminition can bring benefit to the patients in the form of decline of complications. Goal: The goal of master thesis was to prove that the use of new types of vascular access devices has influence on the decline of vascular access devices related complication occurence. Methods: To reach the goal we used a quantitative method of data collection during certain time period using created collection protocols. Research investigation took place from November 2017 to February 2018 at two standard wards of Department of Internal Medicine FN Motol. Results: A total of 350 venous access devices (271 peripheral cannulas, 54 midline catheters, 35 PICC) in 187 hospitalized patients was monitored. Prevalence of complications, average length of placement and reasons for extraction of individual vascular access devices was...
Emergency vascular acces in pediatric patients
Dvořák, Vít ; Sentivanová, Lenka (advisor) ; Hocková, Jana (referee)
Vascular access in pediatric emergency patients is essential with no doubt. This thesis is based on many scientific publications and studies focused on intravenous and intraoseal access and their aplication in pediatric emergency patients undergoing pre-hospital or hospital treatment. First part is theoretical and is concerned about technique of insertion and post-procedure care. The next part is about comparing different techniques and their successful inserting for the first attempt. The last part is aimed at research with predefined goals. The main goal of this thesis is to give a summary of available knowledge about the peripheral intravenous access and intraoseal access in pediatric emergency patients. The research is aimed at selected group of respondents and their knowledge of techniques and treating of intravenous and intraoseal access. The last goal is to find out which access is preferable in sudden cardiac arrest in children. Data obtained from different groups of respondents approved that none of the groups have sufficient knowledge in inserting and carrying the intravenous and intraoseal access in pediatric emergency patients. In an analysis of data the best results gain paramedics. The majority of respondents would prefer intravenous access in case of sudden cardiac arrest. As a...
