Purpose: An evidence implementation of a randomized controlled trial for whether there is the difference in intermittent flushing 0.9% normal saline and heparin? Design: a single-blind randomized controlled trial Method: This study is based on the 5A (Ask, Acquire, Appraise, Apply, Audit) of evidence health care step, and design randomized controlled trial for evidence implementation. We will include inpatients over 20 years-old adults in New Taipei City TuCheng Hospital, Taiwan, who need administration medicine by port-a-catcher. The sample size is 192 according to G-power software. Random allocation software has using for block randomization, would assign to group A: flushing with 0.9% normal saline 10ml, group B: flushing with 0.9% normal saline 20ml, and group C: flushing with heparin 100 USP/ml.
