In intensive care units (ICU), critically ill patients require various venous access devices for fluid resuscitation, drug therapy, or renal replacement therapy (RRT). These include peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC), specialized venous ports like central venous catheters (CVCs), and hemodialysis ports. The investigators plan to do this pre- and post-intervention study to know the effect of intensive training and education of HCW (doctors and nurses) on the condition of venous access devices in critically ill patients.
