Summary

Purpose: It is one of the important nursing interventions for patients in intensive care units with strict glycemic protocol to determine whether glucose values are different for a bedside glucose meter compared to the main clinical laboratory and whether the blood sampling site has a significant effect on glucose values. In this study, it is aimed to compare whether there is a difference between blood samples from venous, arterial, capillary and thumb base region, which is defined as an alternative region to the fingertip, in blood glucose level measurement, and to compare the consistency between the thumb base region and fingertip region and pain and results of the different methods used.

Methods: The universe of the research consists of Bursa Uludağ University Health Practice and Patients will be hospitalized in the General Surgery Intensive Care Unit of the Research Center between April and September 2023. 125 patients who meet the sample selection criteria will form the sample of the study. The sample size of the study was determined statistically with the G\*Power (3.1.7) program. Comparison of blood glucose measurement taken with different methods in the power analysis to determine the sample size. When the effect size of blood glucose was determined as 0.9, it was calculated that a total of 125 patients should be included for a significance level of 0.05 and a power of 80%.

Blood Glucose Measurement Values Taken by Different Methods

In total, blood samples will be collected from 3 different sites (central venous catheter, capillary, arterial catheterization) in the same patient. In total, with 5 different techniques from 3 different regions from the same patient; ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLE i) Washing with 5 cc 1% Heparin fluid ii) Washing with 10 cc 1% Heparin fluid CAPILAR BLOOD SAMPLE iii) Right / Left Fingertip iv) Thumb base CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETERIZATION BLOOD SAMPLE will be collected.
