title: A time and money saver? Cost comparison of i.v. therapy with and without Pall 96 filters.
abstract: 1. Nurses should not be adverse to performing their own research projects to inform their clinical practice. 2. Intravenous filters can reduce the risks involved in IV therapy from microbes, particulates or air, and reduce the incidence of phlebitis. 3. Use of Pall 96 filters may be cost-effective in general medical wards, but this study was too small for general application.
