Documentation of PIVC

[Yana Albrey]

Good Morning All

I am interested in examples of forms in use at other sites to document PIVC care. I am looking for ways to improve compliance with recording of daily device assessment and insertion and removal details. Currently this is recorded on the back of the observation chart however there are some barriers to compliance with this.

Happy to be contacted directly.

Cheers

Kind regards

Hi Yana

A great example of a good PIVC documentation tool can be found on AVATAR’s website.

I-DECIDED assessment and decision tool (avatargroup.org.au)

We were part of the original trial of this tool (soon to be published study results), and while it is more paperwork for staff to complete, the results in improvement in outcomes for patients is well worth it.

Cheers
Michael
