Remote Real-Time Guidance System in Home Care of Patients With PICC or PORT

Plain-language summary

Clinical treatment of digestive tract tumor patients often need chemotherapy before and after operation, most chemotherapy drugs will cause harm to patients, prone to leakage, leading to tissue necrosis. The construction of deep venous channels can protect the blood vessels of patients and reduce their pain. PICC and PORT have become a new clinical treatment technology, and have become the mainstream mode of long-term intravenous indwelling. Although the central venous catheterization technology has many advantages, it also has some limitations. Because of its long-term existence, periodic nursing needs to be carried out, such as correct flushing, sealing, replacement of film and so on. Incorrect care or failure to come to the hospital on time may lead to abnormal use of the catheter or shortening of service life, resulting in some unexpected pain. Under the influence of COVID-19 's epidemic situation, it becomes more difficult and unrealistic for patients to come to hospital regularly for nursing. During the epidemic, patients need more safe and effective care at home. In order to help patients with good central venous catheter nursing at home, this study intends to apply remote professional real-time guidance technology to home nursing care of PICC and PORT tumor patients. Through on-site practical operation training, video explanation materials of long-distance on-line decomposition steps and real-time telephone audio connection guidance are provided to enable patients' families to quickly learn to master nursing techniques, so as to achieve safe and effective self-care at home.
