Abstract

Introduction: More than 4 out of 5 patients in acute care require intravenous catheters. Complications of catheter dislodgement and failure are commonly reported at rates of 15-69% causing interrupted treatment and greater resource consumption when catheter replacement is required.

Areas covered: This manuscript outlines unmet needs in the prevention of catheter dislodgement and how a novel safety release device (Orchid SRV™, Linear Health Sciences) might address these gaps based on available evidence.

Expert opinion: Healthcare initiatives focus on reducing complications and associated costs with the delivery of intravenous treatments. Tension-activated safety release valve devices, attached to intravenous tubing, are a new feature that adds a level of safety to intravenous catheters to reduce mechanical catheter dislodgement when a pull force of greater than 3 pounds is applied. Incorporating a tension-activated accessory into and between existing intravenous tubing and the catheter and extension set protects the catheter from dislodgement. Flow continues until excessive pull force separates and closes the flow pathway in both directions, while the SRV provides a quick replacement to reestablish flow. The safety release valve is used to prevent accidental catheter dislodgement, limit tubing contamination, and avoid more serious complications while maintaining a functional catheter.

兰花安全释放阀的装置外形，用于防止导管意外脱位。

简介:超过4 / 5的急症患者需要静脉留置导管。导尿管脱位和失败的并发症发生率通常为15-69%，导致治疗中断，需要更换导尿管时资源消耗更大。涵盖领域:本文概述了预防导管脱位的未满足需求，以及一种新型安全释放装置(Orchid SRV™，Linear Health Sciences)如何根据现有证据解决这些差距。专家意见:医疗保健举措的重点是减少静脉注射治疗的并发症和相关费用。张力激活安全释放阀装置，附在静脉导管上，是一项新功能，增加了静脉导管的安全性，以减少在施加大于3磅的拉力时机械导管脱位。将张力激活的附件纳入现有静脉导管和导管之间，并保护导管不脱位。流体会继续流动，直到过大的拉力分离并关闭两个方向的流动通道，而SRV提供了快速的替换以重新建立流动。安全释放阀用于防止意外的导管脱位，限制导管污染，在保持导管功能的同时避免更严重的并发症。

期刊介绍： The journal serves the device research community by providing a comprehensive body of high-quality information from leading experts, all subject to rigorous peer review. The Expert Review format is specially structured to optimize the value of the information to reader. Comprehensive coverage by each author in a key area of research or clinical practice is augmented by the following sections: Expert commentary - a personal view on the most effective or promising strategies Five-year view - a clear perspective of future prospects within a realistic timescale Key issues - an executive summary cutting to the author''s most critical points In addition to the Review program, each issue also features Medical Device Profiles - objective assessments of specific devices in development or clinical use to help inform clinical practice. There are also Perspectives - overviews highlighting areas of current debate and controversy, together with reports from the conference scene and invited Editorials.
