A peripheral intravenous catheterization, also known as a PIC, is the most common invasive operation that is performed on patients who are hospitalized. In addition to having a fundamental understanding of pharmaceutical therapy and a familiarity with the anatomy and physiology of the vascular system, it is necessary to possess physical dexterity and technical competence. On the other hand, local problems might manifest themselves in the form of bruising, infiltration, leakage, obstruction of the catheter, and phlebitis, regardless of the condition that caused local difficulties. Phlebitis is an inflammation of the vein that can be accompanied by a variety of symptoms, including discomfort, erythematic, swelling, hardening, and/or a thread that can be felt. Inadequate technique when inserting the catheter, the clinical situation of the patient, the characteristics of the vein, drug compatibility, tonus and pHoof of the medicine or solution, ineffective filtration, catheter diameter, size, length, and material of manufacture; prolonged use are all factors that can influence the development of phlebitis.
