Results A total of 10 publications were included, encompassing 1 guidelines, 1 expert consensus report, 6 systematic reviews, 2 randomized controlled trials.Totally, 18 pieces of best evidence from six aspects were summarized:assessment of peripheral phlebitis, intravevous cannulation, intravevous cannula replacement, infusion management, treatment of infusion phlebitis, supervision and training. Conclusion The summarized best evidence on prevention and nursing care of patients developing peripheral phlebitis related to amiodarone infusion, and the formed recommendations can provide reference for nurses to establish relevant nursing plans.
