Improving Peripheral Venous Puncture Outcomes in ICU via Vein Grading Management.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral venous catheterization is a common yet critical procedure in ICU settings. This study evaluated the impact of venous grading matching management (matching nurses with corresponding venipuncture skills to patients based on venous condition classification) on the effectiveness of indwelling needle puncture. MATERIAL AND METHODS Venous grading management involves classifying patients' venous conditions and matching them with nurses whose venipuncture skills are assessed through monthly evaluations using standardized Grade II venous access procedures. Utilizing a convenience sampling method, 512 ICU patients were selected and divided into a control group (July-December 2022, n=256, receiving routine care) and an intervention group (January-June 2023, n=256, receiving venous grading matching management). Nurses' skills were graded through standardized assessment. Outcomes compared between the 2 groups included venipuncture time, catheter retention duration, first-attempt success rate, and incidence of complications (such as phlebitis, fluid infiltration, and catheter blockage during the catheterization period). RESULTS The intervention group had a significantly shorter peripheral vein puncture time (Z=-3.170, P=0.002) and a higher first-attempt success rate (χ²=22.709, P<0.001) compared to the control group. No significant differences were observed in catheter retention duration or complication rates between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS Implementing vein hierarchical matching management effectively reduces peripheral vein puncture time, enhances the first-attempt success rate, improves nursing efficiency, and minimizes patient discomfort.
