    FREQUENCY OF PERIPHERAL INTRAVENOUS INFILTRATION AND DETERMINATION OF RISK FACTORS IN CHILDREN: A COHORT STUDY
    (2023) Dur, Sadiye; Sımsek, Aysegul; Mutlu, Birsen
    Objective: Intravenous therapy is one of the most commonly used routes for drug administration. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of peripheral intravenous infiltration and risk factors in children. Methods: This cross-sectional and cohort study was conducted in a university hospital in pediatric patients. An information form and the Infiltration Rating Scale were used. Data were obtained from patients, their parents, and patient records. Infiltration data was obtained by researchers through direct observation. Significance was assumed as p<0.05 at 95% confidence interval. Results: A total of 176 pediatric patients made up the study cohort. Most of the peripheral venous catheters were inserted by nurses and into upper extremities. The incidence of infiltration was 57.9%, and most of the infiltrates were first-degree. The development of infiltration was significantly associated with the medical specialty being attended (p=0.001) and the number of catheter insertion attempts (p=0.013). Conclusion: The specific medical specialty and the number of catheter insertion attempts were shown to play a significant role in the development of infiltration.

    The Practices Used by Mothers to Infantile Colic and Their Perceptions on the Benefits of The Practices
    (2020) Mutlu, Birsen; Gönen, İsmail; Avcı, Şerife; Girgin, Sıdıka Sümeyye; Erkut, Zeynep
    Objective: This study investigated the practices used by mothers of babies with infantile colic to reduce infantile colic and the mothers’ perceptions on the effectiveness of these practices.Materials and Methods: The sample of this descriptive study consisted of the mothers of 257 babies aged 4-12 months who were being monitored by two Family Health Centres in Istanbul. The data of the study was collected through a 26-item questionnaire on which the mothers could mark the t practices they used to reduce infantile colic.Results: The methods that were found the most useful based on the perception of the mothers were the mother’s avoid-ance of consumption of foods and drinks that produce gas (97%), chancing positions (96.7%), massage (95.7%), listen-ing to the sound of a hair dryer (95.2%) and warmth treat-ment to the abdomen (91.7%).Conclusion: Consequently, the mothers performed effective and valid practices. However, it was found that the fre-quency of performing some practices that have high utilisa-tion rates was low. Accordingly, it would be useful to inform the mothers of babies who are at the ages of 2 weeks-4 months at the time of their paediatric health monitoring about the effective and easily performed practices for reduc-ing colic.
