Development of central venous access device-associated skin impairment assessment instrument.

For the systematic literature review, 28 articles were included to develop the wound assessment instrument. From the articles and interview contents, 15 criteria were selected based on reporting frequency. After further screening via in-depth discussion, the central venous access devices associated with the skin impairment assessment tool were refined to include 14 major domains. Through a two-phase Delphi process, 71 items in 12 domains were ultimately retained.
