In general, phlebitis can be defined as a condition of inflammation of the veins with clinical manifestations of at least 3x24 hours. Data from the PPI Committee of Muhammad Sani Hospital, the incidence of phlebitis in 2023 there were 7 cases of phlebitis (0.23‰), while in the first quarter of 2024 there were 19 cases of phlebitis (3.08‰). This study aims to determine the effect of intravenous cannula size on the incidence of phlebitis in patients attached to infusions. Pre-experimental research design one shot case study posttest only. The population in this study were patients attached to infusions in the Kenanga Room of Muhammad Sani Hospital in June 2024, totalling 93 people, the sampling technique was accidental sampling and the sample size was 48 people, the research instrument used an observation sheet. Univariate results for the size of the intravenous cannula attached to the majority of respondents size 20, as many as 20 people (41.7%), and most respondents did not experience phlebitis, namely 46 people (95.8%), and the results of bivariate analysis with the Wilcoxon test obtained a negative mean rank value of 11.50, positive mean rank 20.46 and P-Value = 0.000 <0.05, meaning that there is an effect of intravenous cannula size on the incidence of phlebitis in patients attached to infusions in the Kenanga room of Muhammad Sani Hospital in 2024. It is expected for nurses to always follow the SOP for infusion correctly to prevent the occurrence of phlebitis in patients who are attached to infusions.
