Abstract: 

Thrombophlebitis, a condition characterized by inflammation of veins coupled with the formation of blood clots, poses a significant challenge in the realm of healthcare. This experimental study delves into the effectiveness of two prominent treatment modalities - Maxel dressing and Phlebotroy - in reducing inflammation among patients with thrombophlebitis. The study was done utilizing a quantitative research approach that includes a pre-test post-test. The non-probability purposive selection strategy was utilized to pick a total of 60 subjects from designated hospitals in Jalandhar, Punjab; 30 patients were given a Maxel dressing and 30 patients were given a Phlebotroy. The patients who were chosen for the study were evaluated for thrombophlebitis using the Modified Visual Infusion Phlebitis Score. Following this, they were treated with Maxel dressing and phlebotroy for two days in a row, twice daily. The efficacy was evaluated on the third day using the Modified Visual Infusion Phlebitis Score. Results depicts that thrombophlebitis patients who undergo phlebotroy and utilise maxel dressings have less inflammation. When it came to reducing inflammation in thrombophlebitis patients, the research found that maxel dressing and phlebotroy were equally efficient; moreover, there was no statistically significant difference between the two.
