Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 3 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects recruited from the patient population at Virginia Commonwealth University Health System will be enrolled in the Study.

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects will have peripheral IV catheter with active infusions that are anticipated to be in place and functioning for 48-72 hours. The IVs and accompanying infusions are solely a part of the subject's medical care and are not started or terminated for the purposes of this Study. The rationale for choosing this time frame is that the rate of infiltration is likely to be increased the longer the IV infusion is taking place.
  • Subjects are admitted to one of the institution's intensive care or intermediate care units, including Adult Emergency Department, Pediatric Emergency Department, Adult Medical Intensive Care Unit, Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Neonatal Intensive Care Unity, Surgical-Trauma Intensive Care Unit, Cardiothoracic Surgery Intensive Care Unit, Neuroscience Intensive Care Unit, Burn Intensive Care Unit, Transplant Intensive Care Unit, Coronary Care Intensive Care Unit, Post-Anesthesia Recovery Unit, Pediatric Intermediate Care Unity, Surgical Intermediate Care Unit, and Medical Intermediate Care Unit.

Who cannot join

  • Inability to consent
  • Lack of a peripheral IV

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intravenous Infiltration and Extravasation of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Materials, run by CW Optics, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Feb 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Test performance of novel optical device for monitoring intravenous infusion site for infiltration. (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Feb 2012.
