✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The 2006 version of the Infusion Nursing Society (INS) Standards of Practice contains important changes to the society's recommendations for catheter stabilization. Some previously recommended stabilization methods are no longer endorsed, and one method ‐ manufactured catheter stabilization devices ‐ has emerged as the preferred method over all others. The literature cited in the document suggests that implementation of the revised standards should be an effective risk management strategy where catheter stabilization is concerned.
