Summary

This study was designed as a non-randomized controlled trial, comprising both experimental and control groups, to evaluate the efficacy of an evidence-based care bundle in preventing the development of peripheral venous catheter-related phlebitis. The study was conducted at a goverment hospital, specifically within the Internal Diseases/Injury Care and Neurology/Neurosurgery Departments. Data collection involved the use of several instruments: the Nurse Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Patient Demographic and Clinical Information Form, the Phlebitis Evaluation Scale, and the Bundle Care Clinical Follow-up Form. Patients in the control group received standard care as per the clinic's protocols, while nurses were trained in the principles of care, phlebitis management, and the implementation of care bundles. Patients in the experimental group received care according to the evidence-based care bundle prepared for this study. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using Chi-square and Fisher's Exact tests. Care bundle application was found to be effective in decreasing the rate of PVC-related phlebitis development.
