The risk of developing device-related phlebitis and premature device removal, increased significantly if CG was not used for adjunct catheter securement. In parallel with the currently published literature, this study's findings support the use of CG for vascular device securement. When device securement and stabilization concerns are most pertinent CG is a safe and effective adjunct to reducing therapy failures in the neonatal patient population.
