Objective To apply the best evidence of blood collection through central venous catheter (CVC) to clin-ical practice and evaluate its effect. Methods Following the evidence-based nursing method,the best evidence of blood collection through CVC was formulated into an evidence-based practice plan. The best evidence application strate-gy was constructed through baseline review and obstacle factor analysis. A total of 11 best evidences were summarized and 10 quality review indicators were formulated. From April 20 to August 30,2023,the best evidence transformation was implemented in the pediatric general surgery ward of a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou. Results After the applica-tion of evidence,the implementation rates of review indicators 3,4,7 and 10 reached 100.0% by nurses,and the imple-mentation rates of other review indicators exceeded 85%. The scores on the knowledge of blood collection through CVC among nurses were significantly improved,and the difference before and after the application of the evidence was statisti-cally significant (Z=-3.225,P<0.001). The median and quartile of pain score at percutaneous blood collection and CVC blood collection were 8 (6.5,9) and 0 (0,0),respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (Z=-3.201,P<0.001). Conclusion Applying the best evidence based on evidence-based CVC blood collection to clin-ical practice can reduce the pain of children due to the collection of blood samples to a certain extent. It can also improve the awareness rate and implementation rate of the knowledge related to CVC blood collection among nurses,standardize the nursing behavior of nurses through CVC blood collection,so as to improve the quality of nursing.
