Background: A community hospital policy of routinely replacing peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) needed updating to the clinical practice guideline (CPG) of clinically indicated replacement.
Methods: Guided by Lean principles, a clinical nurse leader (CNL) led a quality improvement small test of change on a 38-bed medical unit. The impact of the CPG was evaluated using quality, safety, and workflow measures.
