Summary

Aim: The primary objective was to assess the effect of three different teaching techniques on the success of first-time peripheral intravenous cannulation (PVC) insertion as well as the vein prominence of nursing students. As a secondary objective, the authors conducted research on the students' PVC knowledge levels and skills performance, in the PVC procedure and the duration of the procedure, their satisfaction, and self-confidence in learning.

Design: A randomized controlled trial with a pretest and posttest was conducted between February and July 2022, with near-infrared light visualization (n=49), isometric exercise (n=50), and each other's arms (n=48) with nursing students in Turkey.

Interventions

OTHER

Near infrared light imaging

The participant performing PVC carried out the procedure on the arm vein of another volunteer classmate with the help of vein imaging by NIR. All interventions were conducted under the observation of the researchers.

OTHER

Isometric exercise with stress ball

Before the procedure, the students on whom PVC was to be performed were given two stress balls, and they were told how to use them for 15 minutes. The participants were told to squeeze and relax the stress ball in the palm of their hands after counting from one to three, to continue doing this until the procedure began, and to concentrate on squeezing the ball.
