Objective To analyze the relevant literatures on the use of midline catheters in China, and to provide references for further studies of midline catheters.Methods All literatures related to midline catheters from the date of database establishment to February 2019 were searched in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals (VIP), Wan-Fang Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM). Bibliometric analysis methods were used to analyze the search results.Results Totally 47 articles related to midline catheters were recruited and the number of publications increased in recent years. About 44.68% papers were focused on introducing experiences of the operation process, nursing points, prevention and treatment of complications, and about 38.30% papers were observational studies about indwelling time of midline catheters and complications rate.Conclusions More and more attention has been paid to the midline catheters, but further studies with large samples and high quality are still needed, in order to provide more evidence for the application and popularization of midline catheters in China, and choose a safe, comfortable, convenient, low-cost and high-benefit intravenous infusion device for patients.
