Abstract
Objective: To explore the risk factors affecting peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) tip malposition in preterm infants.
Methods: A retrospective collection of clinical data from preterm infants who underwent PICC placement in the neonatal departments of Guangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital and eight other hospitals from January 2021 to April 2024 was conducted. The incidence of catheter tip malposition was analyzed. The infants were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of catheter tip malposition: the malposition group and the non-malposition group. Multifactorial logistic regression and multimodel logistic regression analyses were employed to explore the influencing factors of PICC tip malposition in preterm infants.
Results: A total of 1,449 infants were ultimately included in the study, with an incidence of catheter tip displacement of 12.56% (182 out of 1,449). Adjusted results from multimodel regression analysis of covariates indicated that Sample selection location in Guilin (OR = 2.30, 95% CI:1.24∼4.25), Yulin (OR = 4.35, 95% CI: 2.27∼8.34) and Qinzhou (OR = 2.63, 95% CI:1.37∼5.08), duration of catheter insertion procedure (OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.01∼1.02), duration of catheter dwell (OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 1.02∼1.07), weight percentile at the time of catheter malpositioning (OR = 11.39, 95% CI:4.81∼26.95), extremely preterm group (<28 weeks gestation) (OR = 4.42, 95% CI: 1.29∼15.16) were risk factors for catheter tip displacement. Additionally, site of PICC catheterization in neck as a risk factor (OR = 3.48, 95% CI: 1.89∼6.40).
Conclusion: Sample selection location in Guilin, Yulin and Qinzhou, duration of catheter insertion procedure, duration of catheter dwell, weight percentile at catheter removal, extremely preterm group (<28 weeks gestation) and site of PICC catheterization in neck may increase the risk of PICC catheter tip malposition.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers in Pediatrics (Impact Factor 2.33) publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research broadly across the field, from basic to clinical research that meets ongoing challenges in pediatric patient care and child health. Field Chief Editors Arjan Te Pas at Leiden University and Michael L. Moritz at the Children''s Hospital of Pittsburgh are supported by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.
Frontiers in Pediatrics also features Research Topics, Frontiers special theme-focused issues managed by Guest Associate Editors, addressing important areas in pediatrics. In this fashion, Frontiers serves as an outlet to publish the broadest aspects of pediatrics in both basic and clinical research, including high-quality reviews, case reports, editorials and commentaries related to all aspects of pediatrics.
