Inadequate catheter securement is an underrecognized patient safety issue that contributes significantly to catheter-related complications, including dislodgment, occlusion, infiltration, and infection. Pooled data from prospective product trials at 83 hospitals compared tape to a standard peripheral intravenous (PIV) securement method with a PIV-specific catheter-stabilizing device (StatLock). A 67% reduction (P < .001) in total patient complications was observed in the stabilizing device…

Evaluation of the use of a stabilization device to improve the quality of care in patients with peripherally inserted central catheters.
TLDR
Use of the StatLock device resulted in better outcomes when compared with the use of sutures, and it provided a more effective way to stabilize and secure PICCs.
Optimizing the Effectiveness of Peripheral Intravenous Catheters
TLDR
Application of an engineered securement device (ESD), an educational program pertaining to modifiable risk factors, and changing the practice to removal upon clinical indication were methods utilized to reduce the number of SPC insertions and catheter failures.
Unfavorable Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Replacements can be Reduced Using an Integrated Closed Intravenous Catheter System
TLDR
The results suggest that the longer survival rate for the CICS can offset the higher initial catheterization costs and potentially offset the cost of unplanned replacements of conventional catheters.
Securing All intraVenous devices Effectively in hospitalised patients—the SAVE trial: study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial
TLDR
This trial will investigate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of 4 methods of PIV dressing and securement in preventing PIV failure, which includes any of: dislodgement, occlusion/infiltration, phlebitis and infection.

TLDR
Study findings suggest that using an ESD, promoting SPC insertion in the forearm, avoiding the wrist and upper arm, and changing practice to removal when clinically indicated reduced the number of SPC insertions and rate of catheter failures.
Securement Methods for Peripheral Venous Catheters to Prevent Failure: A Randomised Controlled Pilot Trial
TLDR
Current SPU dressings alone do not prevent many cases of PIVC failure, and TA appears promising as an innovative solution, but may not be suitable for all patients.
Clinical Evaluation of the Sorbaview SHIELD Securement Device Used on Peripheral Intravenous Catheters in the Acute Care Setting
TLDR
A clinical evaluation of the Sorbaview SHIELD was conducted in January 2010, with 109 medical-surgical patients with PIVs, to demonstrate the expected cost savings associated with the SHIELD by maintaining the PIV for 96 hours and meeting patient and staff expectations.
Devices and dressings to secure peripheral venous catheters to prevent complications.
TLDR
There is very low quality evidence of fewer catheter dislodgements or accidental removals with transparent dressings compared with gauze, but the relative effects on dislodgement were not clear, and there is a need to provide guidance for clinicians by reviewing current studies systematically.
Dressings and Securement Devices of Peripheral Arterial Catheters in Intensive Care Units and Operating Theaters: A Systematic Review.
TLDR
Current research indicates that transparent polyurethane dressings offer the most effective catheter stabilization, but adhesive tissues may constitute a valid alternative, although there are limited high-quality studies about effective dressings and securement devices for PACs.
Improving Securement and Visualization of Pediatric Peripheral Intravenous Catheters
TLDR
“See Me See My IV” slogan, multiple learning opportunities, and feedback on specific results increased success and pilot evaluation measures into on-going QI audits to determine longterm success were incorporated.

TLDR
Examination of two methods of peripheral catheter securement showed a 45% reduction in overall i.v. therapy complications when compared with that of transparent dressing and tape and catheter dislodgment episodes were reduced.

TLDR
It strongly suggests that a mechanical catheter securement device, as opposed to tape or die-cut tape, can render practicable the implementation of the 96-hour PIV change protocol that was sanctioned by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

TLDR
The development of novel technologies based on the understanding of pathogenesis promises a quantum reduction in IVD-related infections in an era of growing nursing shortage and the challenge for the future will be to identify new preventative technologies and to more-widely adapt those technologies that have been shown to be efficacious and cost effective.
Risk factors for infusion-related phlebitis with small peripheral venous catheters. A randomized controlled trial.
TLDR
The use of peripheral intravenous catheters made of PEU-Vialon appears to pose the same risk for catheter-related infection as the use of catheter made of FEP-Teflon, and PEu- Vialon can permit longer cannulation with less risk for phlebitis.

TLDR
The data demonstrate that the device, specifically engineered for catheter securement, significantly reduces overall catheter-associated complications and appears to be the result of improved securement and reduced catheter motion.
