Brief summary
Intermittent or continuous proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy are recommended for high-risk bleeding ulcers according to the French Society of Gastroenterology. The prevalence of incidence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion is high in geriatric acute ward (about 10% of severe vein infusion phlebitis). The primary of objective of the study is to determinate the prevalence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion in aging people. The secondary of objective of the study if to determinate the factors of risk of vein infusion phlebitis.
Detailed description
This is a multicenter observational study. 5 centers will participate to the study. Aging patients undergoing PPI intravenous infusion therapy will be proposed to be enrolled in the study. Paramedical observation will be performed during 5 days for each enrolled patients.
