Comparisons are made with research recommendations and Centres for Disease Control Guidelines.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Background<\/jats:title><jats:p>There is wide global usage of peripheral arterial catheters in the operating theatre for haemodynamic monitoring and blood gas analysis. Frequent blood sampling from arterial catheters can lead to statistically significant blood loss and provide an infective potential. Evidence\u2010based research and clinical guidelines prescribe best practice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Cross\u2010sectional descriptive survey<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Data were collected in 2009 from 64 major Australian hospitals using a self\u2010designed internet survey.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results\/Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Hand hygiene prior to catheter insertion was the only infection prevention practice entirely adherent with guidelines. The recommended ratio of discard to dead space volume of 2:1 to decrease unnecessary blood loss during blood gas sampling was reported by only 11 (17%) respondents. Less than 32 (50%) respondents used the preferred solution, chlorhexidine to disinfect the insertion site. Access ports were reported as \u2018never disinfected\u2019 before use by 30 (47%) respondents.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The complex operating theatre environment presents barriers, which contribute to non\u2010adherence with guidelines. These barriers need to be identified to plan strategies for improvement. A quality audit tool is proposed for development by nurses in collaboration with the anaesthetic team, providing a needed method to assess ongoing compliance with best peripheral arterial catheter care. Further international research would test the generalizability of our Australian findings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jan.12018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,26]],"date-time":"2012-09-26T23:45:54Z","timestamp":1348703154000},"page":"1584-1594","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["A snapshot of guideline compliance reveals room for improvement: A survey of peripheral arterial catheter practices in Australian operating theatres"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Heather","family":"Reynolds","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Perioperative Medicine Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital Brisbane Queensland Australia"},{"name":"Research Centre for Clinical and Community Practice Innovation, Griffith University Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joel","family":"Dulhunty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care Medicine Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marion","family":"Tower","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Centre for Clinical and Community Practice Innovation, Griffith University Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kersi","family":"Taraporewalla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Perioperative Medicine Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claire","family":"Rickard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Centre for Clinical and Community Practice Innovation, Griffith University Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0196-6553(94)90036-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1478-5153.2008.00275.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2648.1999.01155.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2044.2000.01479-4.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","unstructured":"Australian Institute of Health and Welfare.
