  • ① estimated time of intravenous infusion ≥1 week; ② age: ≥18 years; ③ antimicrobialtherapy was only used for treatment during hospitalization, with a pH value of 5-9and osmotic pressure < 900 mOsm/L; and ④ patients were conscious and able tocommunicate normally; ⑤ the catheter-to-vessel ratio is less than 45%.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • ① a history of radiotherapy, thrombosis, and trauma at the catheterization site and ② plans to discharge with a catheter during the study duration.
