| Abstract | ||
| Background: Phlebitis is one of the most common complications of peripheral intravenous cannula. Magnesium sulfate with glycerin and ice are simple, inexpensive and effective non pharmacologic intervention for management of phlebitis. Aim of the study: Assess the effectiveness of magnesium sulfate with glycerin versus ice chips on patients with a peripheral intravenous cannula induced phlebitis. Methods: A quasi-experimental research design was used in this study. Purposive sampling technique was used to select the sample from medical departments at Mansoura Main University Hospital and Medical Specialized Hospital. Results: Both magnesium sulfate with glycerin (2=93.601, p<0.001) and ice chips (2=85.350, p<0.001) were found to be effective in reducing the peripheral intravenous cannula induced phlebitis. Conclusion: Both magnesium sulfate with glycerin and ice application were effective in decrease level of phlebitis but magnesium sulfate with glycerin was more effective than ice chips. | ||
