Extravasation injury

An extravasation injury is an iatrogenic complication resulting from the accidental leakage or infiltration of intravenously administered fluids or vesicant medications from the vascular lumen into the surrounding perivascular and subcutaneous soft tissues Without prompt intervention, it can rapidly progress to severe skin necrosis, deep tissue ulceration, tendon or nerve damage, and potentially compartment syndrome

An extravasation injury is an iatrogenic complication resulting from the accidental leakage or infiltration of intravenously administered fluids or vesicant medications from the vascular lumen into the surrounding perivascular and subcutaneous soft tissues It primarily affects the integumentary and musculoskeletal systems in hospitalized patients, particularly vulnerable populations such as neonates, the elderly, critically ill individuals, and patients undergoing chemotherapy or vasopressor the...
