In the studies conducted to date, no study has been found in the literature that qualitatively examines the phlebitis experiences of intensive care nurses. This study is the first to be conducted in this respect, which constitutes the originality of the research. It is expected to guide clinician and academic nurses in phlebitis assessment and phlebitis care planning and to contribute to the literature.
