The EA-DIVA score is a simple tool to identify patients at high risk of peripheral difficult intravenous access. Its implementation is recommended in order to optimize peripheral intravenous access procedures.

The Enhanced Adult DIVA (EA-DIVA) score serves as a validated tool to promptly identify patients with DIVA. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of DIVA in the ED by using the EA-DIVA scale, evaluate the time required for venous cannulation in patients with and without DIVA, and establish EA-DIVA score thresholds for the adoption of ...

Peripheral intravenous cannulation is the most common invasive hospital procedure but is associated with a high failure rate. This study aimed to improve the A-DIVA scale (Adult Difficult Intra Venous Access Scale) by external validation, to predict the likelihood of difficult intravenous access in adults.

2018年10月16日 · The EA-DIVA score is a simple tool to identify patients at high risk of peripheral difficult intravenous access, applicable to any adult patient undergoing surgery and its implementation is recommended in order to optimize peripheral intravenousAccess procedures.

Difficult intravenous access (DIVA) is common in the emergency department (ED). We investigated the extent to which DIVA is associated with care delay outcomes including time to first laboratory draw, therapies, imaging, and ED disposition.

Approximately 11% of adult patients arriving at the Emergency Department (ED) experience difficulties with intravenous access (DIVA), necessitating advanced techniques for successful placement. The Enhanced Adult DIVA (EA-DIVA) score serves as a validated tool to promptly identify patients with DIVA.
