Description
After the placement of peripheral catheters (Angioket No. 20) in the test group, Indian chestnut extract (Worm Worm) on the skin of the angioket insertion site measuring 3x3 cm and in the placebo cream control group, on the skin of the angioket insertion site measuring 3x3 cm centimeter will be placed and it will be covered by a sterile cover (angioket glue). Daru Nama cream will be prepared by the pharmaceutical laboratory of Iranian School of Medical Sciences in Tehran. In order to blind patients and researchers to the intervention, both cream and placebo will be packed in similar containers and will be provided to the researcher. The occurrence of phlebitis and its degrees will be checked within 72 hours from the time of placing angioket and cream, at zero, 24 and 48 hours.The examination of the position in 24-hour intervals in terms of the occurrence and severity of phlebitis will be done by one of the researchers and one of the colleagues working in the relevant department to ensure reliability between the two evaluators. Based on the study design and ethical considerations, in both groups after examining the position using the visual scale of phlebitis in terms of its development and severity, the samples will be excluded from the study as soon as grade 2 or more phlebitis develops in them, and only samples They will remain in groups with phlebitis of 0 and 1
